Pouaka Kai for Whanau

Pouaka Kai for Whanau is a program, first tried during Covid-19 Lockdown in Otautahi, whereby the wider community can wrap around those in need.

Unfortunately in Aotearoa we still have too many people that are not having their daily, basic needs met. Pouaka Kai for Whanau is a simple intervention whereby through our own generosity we can make sure that some of those in need get access to highly nutritious fresh fruit and veges, plus some free range eggs.

We are working alongside The Loft – a community of co-located social agencies that are working to support the wellbeing of the wider community – to identify those in need. There is also an expressed desire from both The Loft and Toha Kai for this not to facilitate a relationship of dependence for the recipients. This needs to be a program that is supporting peolpe to a better level of wellbeing.

100% of what you offer into this program goes towards the kai and the delivery of the kai.

This is not a tax deductible donation. This is just a really simple way that we can share some of the abundance we experience in our lives with those that need support.
