Aldi has donated over 30 million meals to charities and foodbanks since partnering with Neighbourly in 2019.
Aldi UK corporate responsibility director, Liz Fox said: “We understand that the school holidays can be an especially challenging time for families, particularly amid the current cost-of-living crisis.
“Neighbourly and the organisations they work with carry out such vital work in the community, so we’re proud to be able to support them in their efforts to help those who may be struggling.”
