WHO WE ARE:
Fresh n' Healthy
Our foundation is a registered non profit organisation, committed to improving the standard of living for families in our community.
We care about all families especially those just outside the Government assistance threshold who are hard working and are finding it hard to get ahead of the soaring cost of living.
We're a volunteer organisation partnering with schools based in Hastings to serve families in our local community.
We have a qualified chef and operate out of a commercial kitchen which complies to all health and safety regulations.
ENJOY
CHEF QUALITY MEALS
WE PROVIDE FREE NUTRITIOUS MEALS FOR FAMILIES
Ready cooked stress free family meals
Every week we cook nutritious meals for our local community.
SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP
Our partnership with local schools enables us to reach families who are in need.
* Each week the schools we partner with invite families
to receive a meal.
* The families are given meal vouchers from the school with the number of meals they require.
* Families bring these vouchers to us at Ascende Global Church to receive their free meals.
This happens weekly on a Thursday afternoon.
"We know the first step is asking for help and we know this can be hard. We work with local schools and ensure respect and dignity for the families is upheld."
OUR IMPACT
We save an average family of 4 = $59 per week and take the stress out of one meal for the family per week.
THE FIRST STEP
IS ASKING FOR HELP
THE OPPORTUNITY
To feed our community
Currently it is costing us $3000 per week to provide 200 free meals. $15 per meal. $150,000 per annum.
In our first year 10,000 people will be given free nutritious meals.
Our goal is to move to 600 meals per week - that is 30,000 individuals per year.
This will be $9000 per week - $450,000 per annum.
Our vision is to be able to work with more schools across the region as funding allows to reach more families.
