Woolworths Kingaroy is urging customers to buy items to donate to a Local Community Food Drive.

The initiative will start on November 2 with South Burnett customers encouraged to donate non-perishable food items into a specially marked Local Community Food Drive trolley.

Items which can be donated include:

  • Breakfast cereals
  • Pasta, rice and instant noodles
  • Canned fish or meat
  • Spreads (peanut butter, honey, jam)
  • Baked beans and spaghetti

A Woolworths spokesperson said the store would work closely with local food charities to ensure South Burnett residents in need receive the donated items, along with fresh food to the value of $250 to each charity in time for the upcoming festive season.

“We’re asking South Burnett customers who are in a position to do so, to join us in donating to the Woolworths Local Community Food Drive on their next grocery shop, by simply adding non-perishable items to our trolleys,”  Woolworths State manager Danny Baldwin said.

“By making a small donation, you will be helping the wellbeing of our local community, providing them with the essentials they need.”

Items can be donated until November 15.
