Food For Families. Thanks to Tami.

Tami’s frustration at the Christmas tradition of sweet advent calendars sparked a new way for her family to celebrate.

Tami creates her own ‘advent’ calendar which tells the family each day what food item to put in the Food For Families box they are gradually filling. Whether it be a tin of tomatoes or packet of pasta or box of tea leaves.

“The children really enjoy it…I wanted to teach them Christmas is about giving, it’s not just about receiving.” says Tami.

Tami and her family have been donating food at Christmas time for almost 10 years now. Not only has this tradition continued at home but Tami has also taken it to work.
