Who we are

Hello, we are Foodbank.

We believe everyone should have access to good quality food. We’re here for the everyday Australians who are going without.

We provide food relief to 2,844 frontline charities and 3,379 school breakfast programs. Last year alone, we sourced enough food for 92 million meals.

In the last 12 months, 3.4 million households in Australia struggled to put food on their table.

We are a not-for-profit, non-denominational, federated organisation operating in every state and territory in Australia. Foodbank Australia is the only Australian food relief organisation that is a certified member of The Global Foodbanking Network (GFN) which has members across six continents and more than 50 countries.

Food insecurity is a big problem, requiring a big coordinated response, and we rely on countless partners to do what we do.

Our national and state-based teams work with the entire food and grocery industry including farmers, wholesalers, manufacturers and retailers to source food and capture donations. We also collaborate with suppliers, manufacturers and transporters to produce key staple foods that don’t come in sufficient quantities via rescue channels.

To distribute the food, our state teams work with an army of volunteers to pick, pack and get the food to where it’s needed.

In spite of our best efforts, we estimate that we need 50% more food to provide enough for all the people seeking assistance. To try and bridge this gap, we rely on the generosity of individuals, businesses, community organisations, schools and all levels of government. Find out how you can support us in the fight against hunger.

Hold a food drive

Food drives are an ideal way for individuals, schools, clubs, organisations and companies to help supply the non-perishable items that are always needed by Foodbank. Hunger affects more than 152,000 South Australians and Territorians every month, with one third of them being children. They are families like yours, they might live in your street. But because they suffer in silence, you would never know.

Whether your Food Drive collects 6 items or 600, all donations will make a difference to someone’s life.

Fundraise for us

Turn generosity into action and help feed hope

Every dollar you raise provides 2 meals to an Australian going hungry

When you fundraise for Foodbank, you’re not just helping put meals on the table. You’re feeding hope, restoring dignity and helping vulnerable families and individuals find a way forward.

Fundraising is simple to start and makes a real impact. You can host a morning tea, run a marathon, launch a workplace challenge or come up with something of your own.

Join one of Foodbank’s fundraising events or create your own. Every action you take helps a struggling family find strength for tomorrow.
