Since 2012, Shepparton Foodshare has distributed more than 4.6 million kilograms of food (the equivalent of 9.2 million meals) to the most vulnerable in our community.
Foodshare is the only local food rescue agency, there is no other agency offering the services that Foodshare does locally. A donation to Shepparton Foodshare is the only way to guarantee that your support will directly benefit local people.
Foodshare’s role as a food collection, warehousing, redistribution service also relieves businesses from dealing with the 127 agencies who formerly sought support via food/financial donations, streamlining processes for businesses who want to donate, and agencies who need food for people they support. Of these agencies registered half regularly collect food.
Foodshare rescues and receives donations of food to redistribute to those in ‘necessitous circumstances’ in the Goulburn Valley and beyond. On average more than 350,000 kilograms of food is distributed to registered emergency relief agencies, schools, community meals programs and churches annually. The people supported by these agencies includes individuals, children, homeless, indigenous people, people from our culturally and linguistically diverse community, including new arrivals and refugees.
To deliver this service, Foodshare partners with supermarkets, business, manufacturers, growers, and other food rescue agencies to provide nutritious food. Foodshare stores the food according to regulation guidelines to extend the shelf life of the donated/rescued food to then provide nutritious food and prevent edible food entering landfill as waste.
There is no fee for service, other than a small one-off agency registration fee All food is provided to registered agencies on the agreement that they will provide it to those in necessitous circumstance for free.
