Maldon Community Pantry, Victoria

It's a bit chilly! Need a coat? Maybe a blanket? Thanks to the amazing work of the Good Coat folk, the pantry has a lovely range of coats for people to choose from. Good quality, warm, and freshly laundered, coats for all. Stop by for a coat, grab a cuppa while you're here, and pick up a few groceries :-) Open 9.30-11.30, every Wednesday morning (50 High St Maldon, in the church hall).

Thanks to the TT for helping spread the word about the Shower Truck being supported by Holy Trinity 9-10 Wednesday mornings throughout June. Grab a hot shower (toiletries and towels provided) and pop over to the pantry for a cuppa and your groceries.

For the next three Wednesdays in June we are very pleased to be hosting the One Voice mobile shower truck at Holy Trinity, Maldon (50 High St).

The truck will be available from 9-10am for anyone who would like a hot shower. Towels and toiletries provided.

Thanks to Salvo's Castlemaine and the Maldon Community Pantry for their work in making this possible.

It’s Volunteer Week, and I simply could not let it pass without saying a huge thank you to the incredible volunteer team at the Pantry.

It has been an absolute privilege to work alongside such generous and dedicated people who turn up week after week to set up food tables, unpack deliveries, stack shelves, make cuppas, organise morning tea, and clean the hall.

Our volunteers work tirelessly to ensure the Pantry is welcoming, well resourced, and able to offer as wide a variety of food staples as possible. They carefully steward every donated dollar to help keep the shelves stocked and support our community with dignity and care.

None of this just happens. Volunteers are there early on Wednesday mornings and contribute countless hours behind the scenes throughout the week as well.

Thank you for your kindness, your hard work, and your commitment to providing for others. The Pantry simply would not be what it is without you.

Sometimes we get things a bit out of the ordinary through our trusted food relief network of Food Bank and Food Share. Like these boxes of icy mocktails 🍸🍹 Feel like a non alcoholic party treat? Then please come along tomorrow morning and grab some for your freezer! (Please! We're running out of space!) Cosmopolitan, Mojito, Pina Colada, and Espresso Martini flavours! Open 9.30-11.30 Wednesday mornings. Fresh fruit and Veg, pantry staples, milk, cereals, ready to eat meals, and more.

Had a lot of fun in the Maldon Easter Parade this morning 🐇🐇🐇

Got a coat that you don't need? Please get behind this wonderful project. It's a lovely way for the community to support each other as the cooler months become a challenge. Big thanks to all the organisers 🩵

The Good Coat Drive is back!!! All of April and May we're collecting winter coats for those that don't have any or can't afford to buy one. Last year we could have collected more. And the way this year is going, it's going to be hard for many more people.

There's a huge box out the front of our shop to collect coats. Please only put coats in there. Thank you. They will be collected by our excellent partners at Community Bank Maldon & District and if they need cleaning, the very lovely Sac’O’Suds Launderette will help out.

If you need coats, they can be collected from Castlemaine Community House and Sac-o-Suds Launderette and Maldon Community Pantry, Victoria and Dunolly RTC.

Thank you. Together, community can look after each other.
