Community Health & Legal Support

Eat Up – Sandwich Sessions for School Kids

We’ve teamed up with Eat Up Australia, Anglicare WA, Parenting Centre Dudley Park and the Falcon Lions Club to make sure local students don’t go without lunch. Volunteers help us prepare fresh sandwiches that are delivered to schools across the Peel region—ensuring young minds stay focused and fuelled.

Tee off for a cause! Our inaugural Putt a Hole in Hunger Golf Day will be held on the International Day of Charity (5th September) to help raise funds for our food programs and community support initiatives. Sponsorship packages are available.

Every Small Act Makes a Big Difference
