Help Us Feed The Forgotten #hereforhope

I have put the call to government to help support OzHarvest, and all other charities, during these uncertain and challenging times.

I am awaiting their response.

OzHarvest has never operated with millions of dollars in our bank account. Every dollar we raise goes back to the community, directly feeding people. That has been my promise, and our mission, since OzHarvest started 16 years ago. I will forever remain committed to helping those who need us. If we stop, the impact will be devastating. The families, children and the elderly who rely on us every day are all constantly in my thoughts, and we cannot fail them.

Since the bushfires, floods and droughts, and now coronavirus, the need from vulnerable communities has grown exponentially. The cruel irony is that whilst more people than ever need food, donations to OzHarvest are their lowest they have ever been. And I understand why. We rallied as a country to support those who lost their homes and livelihood in the fires. And now we are protecting our own families as we stock our pantries and try to prepare for an uncertain future.

I know that we are all facing fear right now, but I’m asking you to have hope, and help share that hope with those that have no pantries to stock. Those that have no fridges to fill with fresh produce.. When we come through this, and we will, it will be the strength of our community that we celebrate. If you can, please be a part of our community and make a donation to OzHarvest. $1 will deliver 2 meals, and those 2 meals can change a life.

I thank you, and I wish you and your loved ones health, happiness, and above all, hope.
