Donate to Meat the Need | Feed Out

How can you make a difference? Our mission to fight food insecurity across Aotearoa is more important than ever. The need for nutritious protein is on the rise, and we can’t do it alone. That’s where YOU come in.

Farmers, your donation of livestock and milk can transform lives, providing families with fresh, quality food through our partnership with processors and foodbanks. 

But you don’t need to be a farmer to help – every little bit counts. 100% of our donations go directly to providing nutritious protein to food banks who distribute to families who truly need a step up.

Ready to help? Become part of the solution today. It’s simple, impactful, and makes a real difference to your community.

If you are a Silver Fern Farms supplier, you can pledge to donate livestock by filling out this form. If you are with Alliance, you can head directly to the Farm Alliance Portal to pledge your donation there. You can now also donate your livestock directly at Hazlett yards

If your milk is processed through Fonterra, Miraka or Synlait, all you need to do is fill out a form and we’ll take care of the rest.

To help us keep providing nutritious protein into food banks, you can make a one-off or recurring credit card payment by filling out our donation form.  You can also text FEED to 2662 to donate $3.

We’ve recently teamed up with GatheredHere, a free and easy to use online wills platform. When you’re completing your will, you can choose to include a gift to support Meat the Need in our mission to end hunger across New Zealand.

Your Farm Source points can do more than you think. Contribute your Farm Source rewards here to Meat the Need and Feed Out, and help us provide essential dairy products to food banks and families in need.
