Help The Sustainability Institute by donating non-perishable food items for food insecure families in our community.
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Mandela Day ask! We have about 25 families in our community that are food insecure. The children and youth from these families receive nutritious meals while attending one of our schools or youth programme, but at home there is not enough to eat. We already donate weekly vegetable hampers, but would like to add more items to support the families, especially during the cold winter months. We are looking for donations of tinned foods, soup packs, dried beans, rice, ect.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
