You could help us make a real difference in the local community.
The support of local and national businesses is vital to the running of our Foodbank. We'd love your business to help us tackle food poverty on your doorstep. There are lots of ways to get involved, from volunteering with us at the Foodbank Warehouse, to organising a fundraising event. Any support you give helps!
Monetary giving
We are so grateful for all the support we receive from corporates and local businesses. It makes a huge difference to the number of people we can support.
If you are looking to make a donation on behalf of a company or business, please contact Anna Parr, our Corporate Fundraiser, to discuss further. Alternatively, you can find our bank details here - please do email us to let us know the date you made the donation and the amount you have donated so we can confirm receipt.
Could you 'Sponsor a Shelf?'
We recently launched our new partnership offer for local businesses: 'Sponsor a Shelf'. As the level of need in our local community has grown, so has the amount of food we require. Food donations from local groups, businesses and individuals are still our main source, but we now find ourselves purchasing a significant amount of the food that we distribute. We are therefore looking for local businesses who will pledge to 'Sponsor a Shelf' and help ensure we can keep it stocked throughout the year. Thus promoting health, wellbeing, employment/education and dignity. We are keen to ensure any partnership works for your business too, so please check out the scheme to see what the benefits are for you. For more information, please contact Anna Parr, our Corporate Fundraiser.
Volunteer with us
If your business shares our belief that no-one should go hungry, and wants to put that belief into action, then volunteering at our Foodbank is the perfect opportunity for you and your team!
Our corporate volunteering days are designed to be informative, fun and rewarding, whilst enabling you to make a tangible and meaningful contribution to our work. In return for your hard work on the day, we can give you shout outs on our social media platforms and in our corporate newsletter and take photos so you can share with others about your volunteering.
There are lots of benefits to volunteering. It boosts wellbeing, builds team morale, increases staff retention and lets your customers know that you are serious about your core values and commitment to social responsibility.
If this all sounds good to you, then have a look at our current volunteering opportunities and book in today.
We do ask companies for a donation towards the cost of running sessions at our warehouse. This supports the work of the foodbank and helps us to buy supplies when we have a shortfall in donations.
Food donations
We are so grateful for all the donations of food and toiletries we receive from corporates and local businesses; it makes a huge difference to the people we support.
If you are looking to donate food or toiletries on behalf of a company or business, you can give via an online supermarket delivery and arrange for it to be delivered to our Foodbank Warehouse at:
Oasis St Martin’s Village, 155 Tulse Hill, SW2 3UP
Please get in touch to confirm before planning your delivery slot as we are only open Monday to Friday 9am-2pm. Alternatively, you could run a food drive at your workplace and deliver the donations to the same address.
Find out more information about how to run a food drive.
