About Bellyful Invercargill

Bellyful provides up to three nights of meals to whānau with babies or children under 12 who are facing challenges such as illness, bereavement, stress, isolation, pregnancy, miscarriage, or baby loss – regardless of financial situation. We help families without a support network. Our meals are generously cooked and delivered by volunteers, who will do their best to be in touch within five working days.

What's cooking?

This year we're aiming to cook & deliver 190 meals a month to serve our Invercargill community.

Volunteers

From whipping up & delivering delicious meals, we have a team of about 35 local volunteers serving Invercargill.

More than a meal

91% of families said meals gave them a break when they needed it most, and 97% felt supported without judgment. 

Bellyful New Zealand

From exhausted new parents to overwhelmed whānau, Bellyful is helping lighten the load across Aotearoa. Our latest survey shows the power of a simple meal—91% of families said it gave them a break when they needed it most, and 97% felt supported without judgement. As one parent shared: “You actually kept us afloat in what felt like a sinking situation.”

This year Bellyful is on track to serve over 7,000 families more than 40,000 meals, including stocking neonatal unit freezers across the motu. Ngā mihi to our amazing volunteers and the generous people backing our mahi. Together, we’re filling freezers, warming hearts, and nourishing communities.
