One young man who had recently become homeless, and with his meagre possessions stored in his car, called for some food aid. One of our dedicated volunteers met with him and helped him complete the forms and realised that he needed more than food. We were able to give him a street swag, some clothing from the Op Shop and of course some food to get him through until his next payment. He was deeply impacted by and thankful for, the generous support he received and left with the opportunity to connect with one of our counsellors and an invitation to discover more about Newlife.

Another Street Care project provides a sausage sizzle brunch at a local caravan park, where residents face numerous personal, financial and social challenges. The energetic team of volunteers set up tables of donated food, clothing, useful household items and cook the BBQ for those living in the caravans, busses and cabins that make up the site.
