Share your story

Use your voice to make hunger visible

Your story. Your choice. Your voice.

How can I be a part of what you do?

At Foodbank NSW & ACT, we are committed to sharing the real, lived experiences of people facing food insecurity. 

These stories raise vital awareness and help others understand the support available when times are tough.

Your story can help others

Have you had first-hand experience with food insecurity? Do you know a friend or family member who quietly skips meals just to make the groceries stretch a little further? Are you one of our Community Partners working hard to support those going without? 

You can share your invaluable and authentic story with others. The power of hearing lived experience stories can:    

  • Help to remove the stigma 
  • Reassure people they are not alone 
  • Encourage others to reach out for support 
  • Inspire the community to donate funds or food

By filling out the form, you can become a Foodbank NSW & ACT Lived Experience Ambassador. 

Where will my story be shared? 

We will always contact you for permission before sharing any part of your story, and we will never share your personal details. Your story may be featured in: 

  • Newsletters
  • Social media
  • Our website
  • Fundraising campaigns
  • Media interviews and videos
  • Other opportunities that arise

If you have any questions, please contact media@foodbanknsw.org.au.
