Monetary Donations

If you can't give items to donate, you can also donate using the options above

Any & all donations are greatly appreciated & will be split 50/50 between the Strathclyde Foodbank Society, working with the Glasgow NE Trussell Trust, & the Mary’s Meals sponsored school in Malawi.

If you would like a PDF of the items to collect, you can access one HERE

If you're not sure if an item, especially clothes, can be used in the Backpack Project or taken by the Foodbank, feel free to bring it anyway as we can take items to the Mary's Meals shop where it'll help feed more children across 19 countries! 

The donation drive

Please book a 15min drop-off slot below, this is to reduce the number of people turning up at one time so we can ensure adequate social distancing can take place. If you/your group have collected many items (i.e. so many that you may need multiple trips to bring them in) please feel free to book multiple slots.

Do NOT attend if you are experiencing symptoms of, or have recently tested positive for, COVID-19. There is another drive in 2 weeks time to allow for 14 days isolation.

*The concourse is the raised seating area on level 1 in front of the yellow offices*
