In response to ongoing budget constraints, we've updated our food services to maintain fair and sustainable distribution. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Food Services Availability: Fresh produce and booster boxes are available once a fortnight per household. Each week, requests are capped at 60 households, with the form open from Tuesday at ~10 am until Friday at 4pm, OR until capacity is reached.
Eligibility and Priority: Requests are prioritised for households who haven’t accessed food security support from other food banks or community providers.
New Koha Contribution Model: Each household may receive up to 3 free parcels per calendar year (Jan-Dec). After this, a koha (donation) is requested to help cover ongoing costs. The minimum koha amount is based on household size, as outlined below. Payment can be made via EFTPOS, bank transfer or cash at pickup.

1 person	$15.00

Considering our food boxes offer short-term assistance, we recommend exploring available support from Work and Income. You can call 0800 559 009 or visit Food Assistance for eligibility details. Alternatively, you may find the MSD urgent need guide helpful.

We appreciate your patience and continued cooperation. Together, we can sustain this essential service for those in need.
