Urgent request for essential food pantry items

News

As the effects of the outbreak of the Coronavirus take hold, Doncare is experiencing a rapid increase in the numbers of people approaching our Emergency Relief program for essential food items. At the same time however, as suppliers and major donors take their own precautionary measures and downsize operations, we are rapidly running out of food to distribute.

This is an urgent request for any assistance that you are able to provide in the form of key staple food ingredients, particularly the items listed below (although all items will be appreciated):

  • Canned Tuna
  • Pasta
  • Pasta Sauce
  • Long Life Milk - soy/dairy
  • Cereal
  • Tinned Tomatoes

Donations can be delivered to our office at Suite 4, Level 1, 687 Doncaster Road, Doncaster.

If you would like to discuss how you might assist us to continue to help the most vulnerable in the community, please call Doncare on 9856 1500 or email doncare@doncare.org.au.

Alternatively, please consider making a financial donation here
