About the Expansion

With constant growing demand, our current Southbank facility has been stretched to its limits necessitating substantial renovation and expansion. Plans include creating three cutting-edge shopping spaces to increase our capacity to serve growing numbers of recipients in a timely manner. In addition, we will be creating comfortable waiting areas that allow people to connect and socialise with others.

Our purpose-built, first-class facility has been designed to undergird our ethos to preserve dignity for every person, regardless of their circumstances. We understand that seeking food relief can be daunting and as such, we aim to alleviate this stigma by creating a space that emulates a high-end grocery store where individuals are empowered to make choices in keeping with their cultural preferences.

Our Gratitude

We extend our deepest gratitude to the companies and services that have generously donated their skills, services and Pro bono contributions. Their ongoing support is helping to make this expansion possible and plays a vital role in helping us fulfil our mission of serving those in need.
