LEAVING A LASTING LEGACY
A gift in your will to Feeding Families is a powerful way to care for others long into the future.
Food poverty is not a distant problem. It affects families in our communities every day. But people continue to step up. With time. With food. With donations. With care.
Getting involved with Feeding Families is about helping in ways that feel realistic and meaningful to you. Whether you give once or get involved regularly, your support helps us reach families quickly and with dignity when they need it most.
Your kindness today can bring hope to families tomorrow.
GIVE IN MEMORY
Making a donation in memory of someone special is a meaningful way to celebrate their life while helping others.
Many families choose to honour a loved one by asking for donations to Feeding Families instead of flowers, or by making a one-off or regular gift in their name.
Your tribute will help us provide food and essentials to people facing hardship, turning remembrance into real support for families across our community.
HOW YOUR GIFT HELPS
Legacy and memorial donations help us to:
- Provide emergency food boxes to families in crisis
- Support children and parents during school holidays
- Deliver food to people facing homelessness or sudden hardship
- Work with schools, charities, and community partners to reach those most in need
Every gift helps ensure that compassion continues to reach families across the North East.
HOW TO LEAVE A LEGACY
Simple and flexible options.
You can choose to:
- Leave a fixed amount
- Leave a percentage of your estate
- Include a gift alongside other legacies
Suggested wording for your will.

We always recommend seeking advice from a solicitor when writing or updating your will.
Every legacy gift and donation, large or small, helps ensure families across the North East receive food, dignity, and hope when they need it most.
