This is something that affects the whole city, not just S6 or council estates.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So far, the campaign has raised roughly \u00a319,000 from donations and funding. The charity are currently looking for more corporate support to help them reach \u00a3150,000 (a million meals) by the end of the financial year.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Wise said: &#8220;Individual people giving \u00a320 is incredible, but corporates can afford to give much more. So, we\u2019re really trying to develop that area of the organisation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We do have some amazing corporate supporters like the Milestone Group and Ink at Kelham Island. Sheffield Wednesday Football Club and supermarkets like ASDA and Tesco also help us out a lot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During the Covid-19 pandemic, more people have relied on foodbanks after losing their jobs or being made redundant.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Wise explained: &#8220;We don\u2019t want to be here; we don\u2019t want there to be foodbanks. But the bottom line is that we\u2019re not going anywhere at the moment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>S6 Foodbank is part of the Trussell Trust network of foodbanks operating across the UK.
