Host an Awareness Assembly.  Our team is more than happy to present assemblies and deliver presentations about the Foodbank. Schools are invaluable to the Foodbank’s work, so we would be delighted if you would be able to commit to something as basic as 2 days across a 12 month period.

Tip: End-of-year events and collections alleviate the ‘school-holiday slump’ in donations.

Hold a Fundraising Event.  Whether a bake sale, sponsored silence or talent show, every penny you raise will make a difference to those struggling to feed themselves.

Send collected money online at lutonfoodbank.org.uk/donate.

Become a Referring Agency.  We would love to have your school up and running as a referral agency. This means if you came across a family in crisis, who would benefit from our support, you could issue a Foodbank voucher. They could then take it to a distribution centres to exchange for food parcels.

Hold a Food Drive.  Set a date for your collection, and encourage the children to donate non-perishable food items. Non-uniform days have proved highly successful; instead of contributing money on non-uniform day, children bring in food items for Luton Foodbank.

Contact us for advice and for details on where to drop collected items.
