What the petition asks
Food banks play a big part in helping the homeless. Fortunately, some supermarkets have food banks, however there are still many large supermarkets who don't. We want to make a change, and make it policy that all supermarkets provide food banks to give back to the community.
It costs nothing for supermarkets to provide this service, however it will make a huge difference to those in the community who need it.
