Join us in helping make a difference to someone in your community by supporting our Winter Food Drive.
We're working with Malvern Emergency Food Program (MEFP), who collect non-perishable food donations from school students and other members of the community, to make up food parcels that provide a balanced diet for two-to-three days.
Parcels are then distributed 24/7 at Malvern and Prahran Police stations and other agencies as needed. We're also supporting the Avalon Centre who support vulnerable members of our community.
With the increased cost of living, MEFP is experiencing high demand for food parcels, which are a practical way to help families facing a temporary crisis as they provide a two-to-three-day supply of nutritionally balanced, non-perishable food.
Next time you're out shopping, pop an extra item into your trolley to help us grow our winter food drive and help the community.
