St Joseph's Foodshare Appeal
Conwy Food Share- Feeding local people in crisis
To
everyone at St Joseph’s Church, Colwyn Bay
Conwy Food Share
would like to give our most sincere thanks again to you all for your extremely
kind donations of food and £20 cash given to us last week. We are very grateful
for the substantial amount of food given as we realise that food is getting
more expensive all the time.
This week your
donations have helped us to send a large food parcel to a family with five
children, including a young baby, who are in extreme financial difficulty. Our
single parcels this week included an elderly gentleman who had been in hospital
and a young girl who had her money stolen.
Conwy Food Share
has now been operating for one year and we have given out a total of 360
parcels in that time.
Thank you again
for your very kind continuous support.
Kind regards
From all at Conwy

Thank you to all those who responded to the appeal for tins of meat and fruit. It was great to see so many tins of just what we need however, they all went out in parcels within three days. We have delivered four parcels to families in the last two days.
Please keep the donations coming in as the food is never on the shelves for more than a week. We are always short of tins of fruit, custard and rice pudding, bottles of paste or peanut butter, bottles of squash and fruit juice, coffee, tins of cold meat, tins of main meals eg meatballs, chicken curry, chilli con carne.
We are also very grateful
to receive financial donations as we need to top up food supplies when we run
short. Your help is much appreciated
Conwy Food Share
We would like to encourage you to please continue donating food items for the Conwy Food Share.
The Food Share continues to be very busy donating on average 10 parcels of food a week to needy people across Conwy. The recipients of the food come from all walks of life and all age groups. They are mainly single, but we do have families and single parents. As well as food we also need financial donations to buy perishables such as milk and bread.
Thank you for your
continued support.
The St Josephs Food Share appeal is to help people in Conwy who for whatever reason find themselves unable to pay for food for themselves and their families. This is often a temporary problem but a serious one.
Food
can be left in the box at the back of Church at any
time. The FoodShare volunteers will collect the box in the third week
of every
month.

help this very worthwhile cause.
