What we do?
In Melbourne city streets there are numerous men, women and youth who have not, can not or feel they do not have a home, shelter and saftey.
To these we make up large size Ziploc bags with hand warmers, gloves, beanie hats, socks, blankets and toiletries like a travel toothbrush and toothpaste, lotion, deodorant, etc to the streets. Another thing we do is take sauage rolls, hot dogs, drinks, etc When we go out on the local streets, we use a foldable trolley and walk around with these items that are seen by those being distributed to needing help, welfare and human kindness
Our objecticve is to not only assist in temporal practical supplies, but to build rleationships and trust where we can invite those who really want life changing help to visit our local base where we provide clothes, shoes and advocacy, etc
We want to not just support them on the street - but get them off the street!
Its easy to judge why people end up on the street, but hearing their stories of loss, broken relationships and tragedy you realise people need kindness and hope - not judgment. A persons life void of love and kindness simply need to be rekindled with a spark of hope that somebody cares enough to stop and reach out to them
