What if the charity sells food for a fundraising event?
Anyone who sells food at a fundraising event for community or charitable causes is not required to notify the Food Authority, provided the food does not pose a possible health risk, or is eaten immediately after thorough cooking. Examples include: • School fetes where the proceeds are donated to a charitable organisation. • A sausage-sizzle to raise funds for the junior soccer players club. • A lamington drive to raise money for the victims of a natural disaster like the South-East Asian Tsunami. • Selling chocolates to raise money for the Red Cross.
