STOCKS ARE RUNNING LOW - HELP THE FOODBANK
Donation protected
As the situation unfolds in relation to COVID-19 we are raising vital funds so that Ballycastle Foodbank can respond to increasing demand. We are facing an unprecedented challenge and so any donation will be warmly welcomed as we continue to support those people most in need. Many of the primary locations used to donate food to are now closed, there are little or no opportunities to give food directly to the Foodbank BUT they still need stock.
As the impact of coronavirus takes hold, and the knock on effect of unpaid work, unfulfilled contracts, zero hours workers getting literally zero hours, new universal credit claims, currently a six week delay, who knows how much longer it will be with so many new claims to process?. More and more people are going to find themselves at the door of the food bank, only to find that their shelves are empty too.
We don't know how COVID-19 is going to end up. We have no idea of the impact on our economy, society, communities. But poverty is already isolating, lonely, and exhausting. If we all turn inwards and only look after ourselves, more and more people are going to slip through the cracks.
All the money raised here does directly to Ballycastle Foodbank who will use it to support people in need and at risk of food insecurity and hunger.
If you can't afford to donate - sharing it on social media is free.
Thank you for your support.
