Help us reach our goal of 5,000kg of food donations.

Bendigo Foodshare run community food drives each June and November, with the assistance of local Coles, Woolworths, Aldi and IGA supermarkets.

Our Food Drive 

We are holding our annual community food drive for non-perishable/pantry food items this November, to help provide food relief to those doing it tough due to the rising cost of living and the current flood emergency.

The food drive will run throughout all Bendigo supermarkets (Coles, Woolworths, IGA and Aldi) and across many local organisations for a month-long effort to fight hunger in Central Victoria.

We currently support 71 organisations across Central Victoria, with 21 of those affected by the floods.

Please donate what you can in the yellow bins located at your local Coles, Woolworths, Aldi and IGA supermarkets in Bendigo.

Community Food Drive

There are also other ways you can help – why not create a food drive at your business, school, home or community group. Get a cardboard box or plastic tub, print out our posters and stick them to the food drive bin, and display posters so people can see them.
Bring your community together; talk to your friends, family, co-workers and customers about our work. Post on social media or include the food drive in your newsletter.
