Summer Family Food Appeal 2024

Workplace Health

 

The Education Authority (EA) has launched it's 4th Summer Family Food Appeal running from Monday 3 June – Thursday 27 June 2024, which supports local food banks.

Our Health and Wellbeing Champions Committee along with our EA Charity Committee is calling on staff in schools and services to get involved by donating food items to help children and young people that may be experiencing food hunger over the summer.

 

How can I/ we help?

In three simple steps:

  1. On your next shopping trip pick up an extra item(s) from the most needed items below:

 

Rice

UHT Milk

Diluting Juice

Tea, Coffee & Sugar

Honey

Red & Brown Sauce

Male/Female Toiletries

Toilet Rolls

Household Cleaning Items

Tinned Fruit

Tinned Potatoes

Jam and Spreads

Custard

Tissues

 

 

  1. Drop the item(s) off at EA Offices (Reception or Canteen Area), where there is a Green Food Bank Crate/Box waiting.

 

  • Armagh Office: 3 Charlemont Place, The Mall, Armagh, BT61 9AX

(As currently The Trussell Trust does not have a Food Bank in the Omagh Area, we have liaised with The Outreach Centre and REACH Food Bank, Omagh all donations will be distributed locally.)

 

  1. Place your item(s) in the crate and we thank you in advance for your donation!

All donated items will be distributed in your local area. We look forward to updating you on the difference you will make to children, young people, and their families within our communities.

 

If you are unable to attend the available donation points you can still get involved by accessing information on your local food bank and how to help or donate in other ways by visiting https://www.trusselltrust.org/(link is external)
