Food Bank Kansai - Summer Food Drive
Rising prices show no signs of slowing down. An increasing number of households are struggling to put food on the table every day. Families raising children who are already struggling financially are particularly anxious about how they will get through the summer break, when school lunches are not provided. Food Bank Kansai is launching the following initiative to deliver food donated by the public to these households, so that children can enjoy a healthy and happy summer.
The ACCJ Community Service Committee-Kansai asks for your kind support to donate food to Food Bank Kansai. Donations will help families in need during the summer school holidays, when children do not have access to school lunch.
