Who doesn’t love a heart-melting moment?<\/h2>\n

‘Hope’ was in for a real soaking this Winter, until you helped us defy BOM’s gloomy forecast…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

From frosty mornings in Fed Square to bone chilling rains in the Central Highlands, Foodbank Victoria markets popped up all over the state, each week, right across Winter – no matter what the weather threw at us.<\/p>\n<\/div>
