25.01.2022 We’re all in this together, and as one we should be proud of how far we have come during this unprecedented time. But there’s a long way to go, don’t forget to reach out to your friends, family and people who may be finding this situation more difficult than others. We’ve got this Australia

24.01.2022 What a a great day we had at Mo’s Desert Clubhouse, packing 60 extra special bags. These have been delivered to the amazing people at Kalwun Health Service, to distribute to those experiencing homelessness on the coast. A big thank you to our super happy volunteers for their help packing!

23.01.2022 During these unsettling times, we would like to fill your news feed with positivity. It’s hard to break through the negative news, especially when every second post is about the ramifications of COVID-19. We’re here to help. Starting with tomorrow, an amazing way to show our respects is to tune in to the Dawn Service on ABC at 5.30am. Each week we’ll be posting interactive positive content. Stay tuned!

23.01.2022 Such a massive thank you to Lauren for an amazing donation of dental supplies. Toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouth rinse and more! Many of these products have already been packed into sacks and will be sure to bring many a smile to people doing it tough out there.

22.01.2022 A massive thank you to Sandvik Mining for their donation of over $1800 in gift cards. Their staff were given one each for Christmas, however they chose to pass them on to PASF. We have since been using them to purchase products for our sacks, and now also pantry boxes. An amazing contribution by their team!

22.01.2022 This weeks sacks headed out to those on the streets of Ipswich. Thanks to everyone for your support to make it happen.

20.01.2022 Today we dropped off six pantry boxes to our latest school to come on board. These packs are full of basic grocery items a family need to stock the cupboard for a week of dinners and school snacks. THANK YOU to all who donated this week to make this a reality. That’s six more families with a little less stress this week, all because of YOU. That’s something to be proud of.

19.01.2022 The first of our community pantry packs are ready to be delivered to our local state school. These five packs are going to local families in need to help. It is as always during difficult times but NOW more than ever that we must band together to take care of our fellow humans and work to create a better, safer and more considerate world. Please head to www.payasackforward.com/donate and help a family that so desperately needs our help. Much love from your PASF family

19.01.2022 It’s been a tough year for so many in Melbourne. Including here at PASF, our usual services were unfortunately unable to operate as many of our partner organisations were closed down during COVID. But great news, we are so excited to be back! In particular at our regular Monday night food van in St Kilda. Things are still a little different, but our number one volunteer Josh is finding a way to get things done. Including a packing session at home with his beautiful and suppor...tive family. We can’t thank Josh enough for everything he has done for PASF in Melbourne, the passion he shows when it comes to helping people experiencing homelessness is an inspiration. You’ll notice he’s not in the photos, he could not be more humble and often refers to himself as the stamp on the bag and says no one needs to see him. But don’t worry we’ll get him in a couple photos along the way. Thanks again for all you have done Josh, we’re so happy to have you out there on the Monday nights again. No doubt the people you show such kindness to have missed you. We appreciate all that you do. See more

13.01.2022 Ok....time to reconnect!

04.01.2022 We had a great little visit to the amazing people at The Winsome Soup Kitchen. We were able to distribute 100’s of items that had been kindly donated to our Community Pantry. These items were extremely valued in what continues to be a challenging time for many people experiencing homelessness, and for those who have found themselves in unforeseen and equally challenging circumstances due to COVID. Thank you everyone for your support
