We are excited to be a recipient from the Suburban Rail Loop Community Projects Fund.
$25,000 will help us to provide extra support to vulnerable people living in the City of Whitehorse.

Cost of Living increases have impacted very badly on the community. The funding we have received from the Suburban Rail Loop Community Fund will allow us to provide a greater depth of support to more people than would otherwise have been possible.
You can find out more about the fund and other successful local projects at

Thanks to Ruben, a Primary school student in the local area who has generously donated some much needed items to us, paid for from his own money.
We greatly appreciate his support and his caringness towards others. Great work Ruben! An example to us all.

Thanks to Bendigo Bank, Blackburn South Community Bank.
Over the past year the Community Bank has supported us by helping to cover various of our running costs.
This has meant that more of our limited resources have been available to help people in need than would otherwise have been possible.
The support we have received from the bank has made a lot of difference to a lot of people.
THANK YOU!
