FINAL PUSH FOR THE KAPITI FOODBANK PROJECT

PLEASE HELP GET OUR BUILDING PROJECT OVER THE LINE

Just over a year ago, we launched our Building Fund Appeal - the largest fundraising campaign since the foodbank's inception in 1999. The goal was to raise funds to purchase, relocate and refurbish a purpose-built facility we could call our permanent home.

Throughout the project, we have received overwhelming support from the MenzShed, local businesses and service clubs, churches, and the KCDC. However, increasing build costs, and unexpected expenses have left us short of funds to complete our building project.

No stone has been left unturned in our efforts to provide a permanent home for our much-needed service - including grants, large business donations, and repurposing materials from the community centre.

Our goal is to be in our fully refurbished building by spring, but we need your help for that final push.

So whatever you can afford, please dig deep and help us get over the line.

You can donate by calling into our office at 134 Rimu Road, Paraparaumu, or by visiting our website, or by going to your local bank.

Bank account name: Foodbank Building Fund Appeal
Bank account: 12-3157-0048639-50

And for those businesses or schools keen to get involved, why not come up with something creative for a gold coin donation. It's not only a fun idea but will help boost spirits during these colder months - and it's for a great cause.

All donations over $5.00 are tax-deductible, so if you require a receipt or to share photos, please email foodbankkapiti@gmail.com.

Visit www.thekapitifoodbank.co.nz... for a direct link to our designated building fund appeal account.

Once again thank you from the team at the Kapiti Community Foodbank, and from all those in need who rely on our services.

Yakima DoubleDown Ace 4 Bike Rack

Kevin from Waikanae

This is brand new and only used once to test on our car.
It tilts back to allow access to boot.
It didn't fit our car.
Some paint has come off on the hitch area where it was inserted into our car's hitch receiver, but otherwise, it's good. Comes with all original packaging.
