Coles wins Foodbank Leadership Award
"Coles have been working with Foodbank for well over a decade, and the support from their stores across Australia has been outstanding," Mr Webster said. "They've been fantastic partners with Foodbank, helping us work to alleviate hunger in Australia. Their award is well-deserved."
Coles Community and Sustainability Manager Majella Allen said it was concerning that many Australians continue to struggle to feed their families, and Coles was proud to support Foodbank's important work.
"The award is great recognition for our team members across the country who work hard to ensure we send regular food deliveries to Foodbank," Ms Allen said.
"As a company, we were thrilled to record our largest ever Foodbank donation last year, and we look forward to continuing our work with Foodbank to provide food for those in need."
Foodbank is Australia's largest national food relief organisation, delivering valuable food and drink supplies to every state. Foodbank enables major welfare agencies across Australia to distribute around 60,000 meals every day.
