News : Social Bite launch "Boxes of Joy"

Scottish charity launches sweet new campaign to help end homelessness

Social Bite has today launched “Boxes of Joy” brownies with 100% of the proceeds made will be going towards the organisation’s effort to end homelessness.

Boxes filled with four delicious brownies in a variety of flavours can be purchased directly from Social Bite onlinepurchased directly from Social Bite online for £12 per box, with vegan and gluten free options available and UK-wide delivery.

When customers buy brownies online, they will also be given the option to ‘pay it forward’ so Social Bite can distribute brownies to people experiencing homelessness on its free food handouts.

Josh Littlejohn MBE, Co-founder of Social Bite, said: “It is a pleasure to be announcing some good news today as we officially launch our new brownie delivery service.

“Like many hospitality businesses, the Covid-19 pandemic put the future of our organisation into great uncertainty. Our biggest concern is for the homeless and vulnerable people that we support on a daily basis who are the worst affected.

“Our teams have worked so hard to produce and deliver food and supplies to those in need, processing 6000 emergency packs a day at the peak of the crisis. Now they will be adding the production of 200 boxes of brownies a week to their remit to bring a smile to people’s faces in what continues to be a challenging time for all.

“By purchasing these brownies, you will be helping us to grow our offering, create more jobs within our enterprise and continue to support our charitable work.”
