Cambridge Food Bank’s Post

During our last community kitchen event, something remarkable happened. As we were distributing meals, we unexpectedly ran out of takeaway packs. Rushing to a nearby store to get more, we met Olamilekan a food vendor. Instead of accepting payment, Olamilekan chose to donate the packs to us. He was deeply moved by our efforts, something he had never seen in his community before, and wanted to be a part of it. Even if he was selling food , he didn’t feel uncomfortable about us giving out food around him. We salute Olamilekan’s generosity and his willingness to support his community. Now, imagine a world filled with more people like Olamilekan—where sharing and giving back are the norms, and everyone has enough to eat. This vision is within our reach, but it starts with each of us. Be like Olamilekan. Donate today, and together, we can make this a reality. #foodcliquesupport #sdg2030 #zerohunger #sdg2 #hungerheroes #endinghunger #foodsystem #charity #donation #socialimpact

This is quite an incredible statistic just released by the Charities Aid Foundation. The amount of money donated to food bank charities has increased by 50% year on year, with the British public estimated to have given almost £1 billion last year - it's a staggering amount when you consider the cost of living crisis. Based on a sample size of just over 13,000 people, CAF found that people donated £973 million to food banks in 2023, increasing from £635 million during the previous year. The latest official statistics from the government, shared by CAF, show that 3.3% of households used a food bank within the last year, with 1.4% saying they had used a food bank within the last 30 days (2022 to 2023). #charity #CAF #foodbank

As it is a "food" bank, many people think donating food is the best way to help someone out. Although it does massively help, food banks can get more food for their money, buying in bulk and special orders. A donation of just $1 to a food bank can buy 2 meals, where as $1 worth of food can't even buy half a meal.
