Drummond street’s services FOODS program assists vulnerable and disadvantaged people to access food and essential care items, in an environment where they may be especially impacted by the pandemic due to their lack of personal, social and financial resources, particularly as a result of the Covid-19 Pandemic.
Our disadvantaged and vulnerable clients include individuals and families in financial distress, people experiencing family violence, people experiencing homelessness or vulnerable persons such as those unable to access Centrelink payments (e.g. temporary visa holders).
Since our FOODS program commenced in May, primarily funded by drummond street services, we have sourced and delivered pre-cooked frozen meals, non-perishable food hampers, Coles/Woolworths vouchers and other essential items/care packs to a total of 790 people across Northern/Western Melbourne.
We have partnered with organisations including, Moving Feast, FareShare, OzHarvest, Halal Food Bank, Melbourne Period Project to source products, which our dedicated FOODS program staff, pack and deliver from our Carlton office.
