Increase our impact
Since launching in 2019, nearly £2 million has been given to food banks via our platform, which means over 63,426 people across the UK have been given a week's worth of food.
Support our mission
Bankuet’s mission is to get food banks what they need, when they need it - and make it easier for people to give.
Help us operate sustainably
Currently, Bankuet only takes 7.5% of the donations we raise for operational costs and the platform is free for food banks to use.
Empower our team
We are currently resourced by an incredible hybrid team, a mixture of core volunteers and a small number of paid contractors.
