Food has long been linked to love. It’s nourishment, it’s pleasure and when prepared for you it’s often a sign of care and nurturing. For parents with sick children, a prepared meal is more than just a relief; it's a chance for them to be looked after too.
Agora Cafe in Hamilton knows all about food being love. They’re a cafe with heart, who frequently pay-it-forward meals and coffees to local charities thanks to both their generous customers and their own donations.
They paid-forward 15 meals to True Colours Children's Health Trust, an organisation who support families whose kids have chronic, life-altering or life-shortening illnesses.
In such a time of turmoil having nourishing meals ready for them at the end of the day is a huge help.

A huge thank you to both Agora and True Colours for the support they give these families. It’s so heartwarming to see people caring for one another, especially in such a hard time.
If you’d like to pay-forward some love and care too, head to Agora for one of their delicious Raspberry Blondies and add a small amount to your bill. Or, if you're not a Waikato local, head to our marketplace to find generous businesses in your region.
Here’s how generous people just like you have made a difference to local people in need.
