Kojo Anim introduces Crackers Cracking Hunger
Deliveroo have teamed up with Kojo Anim to launch a special range of charity Christmas crackers called 'Crackers Cracking Hunger', helping to provide crucial meals for families in need.
Make crackers mean more this Christmas by giving the gift of food with Deliveroo's new range of Christmas crackers. Each box of six crackers costs £10, all of which will be donated to The Felix Project and FareShare, providing the equivalent of a week of meals for a UK household in need by redistributing good food that would otherwise go to waste. You can get the crackers via the Deliveroo Editions app or website.
Kojo says: "I love Christmas, so when Deliveroo asked me to get involved in supporting FareShare and The Felix Project, helping households in need this December, I couldn't say no. I always say my gift is to tell jokes but my purpose is to help people.
"Deliveroo is a brand that really has become a central part of our communities across the country over the past few years and even more so during Covid-19. It's brilliant to think we can collaborate to give the ultimate gift to those in need - food - which will hopefully give some festive joy to those facing tough times. That's what Christmas is all about for me."
Kojo, who grew up in foster care and spent many years volunteering at homeless kitchens at Christmas, adds: "I know what it's like to feel desperate and be the one crying on your knees. Before Britain's Got Talent, I was exhausted and fed up and things could have easily gone downhill - it's scary how quickly things can escalate for people.
"I'm lucky because I've always had close family and friends around me and while we weren't well off growing up, our community was what made us stronger, particularly around the festive season. I know not everyone has that and what I love about this campaign is that it does more than just deliver a Christmas meal to someone in need - it brings the community to them."
