Help City Harvest reach our £200K target in the Big Give Christmas Challenge match-funding campaign.

DOUBLE YOUR DONATION to City Harvest from 12 noon 3rd December to 12 noon 10th December and double the impact you can have on London’s children facing food poverty.

Food is key to a child’s health. Without proper nutrition, children can face severe, irreversible changes in development: weak immune systems, stunted growth, and higher risk of heart disease. Hunger affects mental health, concentration at school and chances later in life. In London, 40% of children are food insecure. Malnutrition is growing, and Victorian diseases like scurvy and rickets are returning. If we don’t act, this crisis will have devastating consequences for a generation’s future. Learn more in our 2023 Value to People Report.

City Harvest provides nourishing food to children facing hunger and malnutrition. We rescue food that would otherwise go to waste and deliver it for free to local children’s organisations across London. If we reach our campaign target, we can provide an extra 800,000 meals to children across London. Over 45% of the food is fresh fruit and vegetables, improving children’s nutrition, mental and physical development, and opportunities later in life. Please help us improve a child’s future.

How does this work?

For 7 days, starting at 12 noon on Tuesday 3rd December, the Big Give Christmas Challenge gives City Harvest supporters the opportunity to double their donation and impact £10 becomes £20, which can provide 80 healthy meals to London children!
