Kicking off into the Christmas season, North Perth’s Community of Character is launching an initiative to support the Salvation Army Food Bank and hopes businesses will step up and answer the call.
The “Tag Your It” initiative encourages businesses, organizations and service clubs to donate or run a food drive and make a post on social media, tagging another businesses to encourage them to do the same.
Meaghan Graham, Coordinator for Community of Character says nobody ever wants to see the shelves at the food bank empty, something that is becoming much too common.
“I was hearing from the Salvation Army ‘our food bank is low, we’re seeing more need and more people through our doors’ at one point they reached a really critical point where their shelves were almost empty. No one wants that.” said Graham.
Businesses are being encouraged to get the ball rolling with donations but those wanting to get more involved can reach out to Community of Character to learn more about “Tag Your It.”
