Partnered by Kirikiriroa Family Services and Foodstuffs North Island, the first phase is completely free with no limits, later possibly introducing small fees to teach budgeting. Beyond food, it’s a hub for financial advice, social workers, and community resources — designed to tackle root causes, especially for working families in crisis. This is the 15th such partnership for Foodstuffs North Island, aiming to connect families with skills and support so they can eventually leave food insecurity behind.
