FOOD FOR LOVE CELEBRATING 10 YEARS of supporting the local community
Submitted by Jodie Stuart
We bring structure as you grow. More time. Better systems. Less stress.
Food For Love is proud to celebrate 10 years of supporting the local community, marking a significant milestone in April 2026. Since its inception, Food For Love has been dedicated to providing meals and care to individuals and families during times of need. What began as a small, community-driven initiative has grown into a vital support network, made possible through the generosity and commitment of volunteers, partners, and supporters. To commemorate this milestone, Food For Love is hosting a special 10-year celebration on Friday, 17 April 2026. This event will bring together those who have contributed to the organisation’s journey over the past decade, recognising the collective effort that has made a meaningful difference in the community.
“This milestone is not just about Food For Love - it’s about the incredible people who have given their time, resources, and compassion over the past 10 years,” said Bex Sarginson, Co-Founder and Operations Manager of Food For Love. “We are deeply grateful to everyone who has played a part in supporting our community.” This is an open invitation to all volunteers, partners, and supporters both past and present. Please feel free to share this invitation with anyone else who has been involved and may like to attend. As numbers are limited, attendees do need to RSVP in advance. For more information please contact Tracey volunteer@foodforlovewanaka.com. Pictured: Bex Sarginson and Tracey Pedersen with volunteer cooks at Food For Love.
