Since 2022, our volunteer team has run the Second Helping every Monday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 12 families, and now we feed 327 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 51% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 12 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Wollongong market and keep every receipt.
Each $35 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $1,500 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $850
• Refrigeration and electricity: $310
• Baby formula and diapers: $340
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
