The largest individual contribution an organization has ever received was done by Taylor Swift recently. It greatly impacted the situation of Cardiff Foodbank.
This money will be utilized to buy an articulated lorry that will be loaded with food and necessities, greatly increasing their ability to provide emergency food bundles.
According to Cardiff Foodbank CEO Rachel Biggs
“This will provide the weight equivalent to feeding 1,200 people three meals a day, for three days – or 10,800 meals. This will be 2.5 weeks of what we typically distribute.”
It provides them with immediate resources to maintain and expand their current operations.
“The breathing space Taylor’s donation has given us will enable us to lift our heads and shift our focus from the food bank to the creation of a sustainable operation supporting people who currently need our help,” she added.
Charlotte Moorcroft from St Andrew’s Community Network highlighted the relief and positive impact Swift’s donation brought to the organization. “Being able to reduce the burden on the organization’s infrastructure has been a great relief for us,” she said. “It’ll ease the pressure on us a little bit and make a big difference to the work we’re able to do.”
