We were so happy to see Bellyful Tauranga featured We were so happy to see Bellyful Tauranga featured in the Bay of Plenty Times this week! 🥰

One inspiring local, Janice Delicata, has been volunteering with Bellyful for around 10 years. Her message is simple: “I really believe in Bellyful.” And she’s seen first-hand the difference a meal can make.

“You see some of these mums – they’re so tired and they’re just so grateful when you arrive with the meals.” For Janice, the most rewarding part of volunteering is “knowing that you’re making a difference in somebody’s life.” 

Ngā mihi Janice, and all our amazing volunteers.

Christmas can tip an already full plate right over Christmas can tip an already full plate right over. Extra costs, extra pressure and not much time to breathe. 

Right now, some whānau with babies and young children are facing the holiday season without the support they need. 

Bellyful delivers full, yummy and ready to heat family meals. Taking dinner off their plate and giving them a breather when everything feels too much. 

You can help in two ways: 
💗 Donate meals directly 
🎁 Or gift meals in someone’s name with an e-card you can email or download.
