From 2016 to 2020, the Newman’s Own Foundation was the major philanthropic supporter of the Feed Appeal. 

The Feed Appeal was co-founded by Leader Community News and FareShare, Australia’s largest charity kitchens, in 2009 to provide grants to community charities in Victoria struggling with the demand for food relief.  With support from Newman’s Own Foundation, the Feed Appeal expanded nationally in 2019 to feed and nourish local communities across the nation.  

Nutrition is a major focus area for Newman’s Own Foundation, and it supports programs around the world that implement model solutions to provide fresh food access and nutrition education to underserved communities. The Feed Appeal was an exemplary campaign through which people can directly support local charities in delivering food relief to their communities.
