The Vinnies food bank is running low on a few key items:

🥫 Tinned soup
🥫 Instant pasts meals
🥫 Cooking oil – 500ml bottles

Items can be dropped directly to the Vinnies Welfare & Support hub in Newtown or to any of the Vinnies Op Shops in Wellington.
💙 Did you know we run the food bank by a choice-based model? This means people accessing food support choose the food they want and need in their parcels.
