25.01.2022 **IMPORTANT NOTICE** We are closed for the beginning of next week to restock our food supply and will reopen on Wednesday. Food supply may be low on this day, but we're hoping it will all pick up soon! Please stay tuned regarding Thursday and Friday opening hours!... To avoid wasting your time rocking up, we ask that everyone regularly checks our Facebook and Instagram pages over the next few days. Food shortage at The Pantry has been real but we expect deliveries over the next few days. Once again, thank you for your cooperation and patience while we adjust to suit the circumstances. YAY to end of lockdown and getting back on track! . . #foodgracehope #foodrelief #foodshortage #communityworktogether #inittogether

24.01.2022 Blue skies and sunny days are our favourite! Feeling the summer kicking in, but queuing at the top of our hill, you've likely noticed the coolest breeze on you while you wait! One more day to go guys before we pack up this week! Come see us tomorrow!! #foodgracehope #gentlebreeze #zephyr #community #trolleypushing #heretohelp #lastday

24.01.2022 Thumbs up and ready to go! Our team was on fire today providing food for over 300 people in two hours! If you have never come to see us at The Pantry WA but would like to do so, it's as easy as taking the first step to rock up, checking in with our friendly front of house team and walking out with food to supplement your grocery shop for the week! No strings attached! For many individuals and families in our community, The Pantry WA has become a first point of relief in g...etting through a very difficult season. Seeking help is often the most challenging step to take, but it is also one of the most courageous acts you can do for yourself and your loved ones. . . #courage #courageousactions #foodgracehope #loveourwork #community #loveyourself #loveothers #blessed @ The Pantry WA See more

19.01.2022 Another brilliant day here at The Pantry WA serving our wonderful community! We look forward to seeing our regular visitors every week - like our mate Paul here, and we especially enjoy meeting the new visitors that drop by! If you haven't been able to get in this week, there's still one day to go so pass by tomorrow and stock up for the weekend! Simply put, if you're needing the help, that's what we're here for! . .... #communityfeels #foodgracehope #happydays See more

19.01.2022 We love our dairy products! Especially on a sizzling hot day like today, it was such a pleasure to be able to hand out this great selection of chilled and frozen goods. Creams, yoghurts, butter and milk were happily added to the food hampers received by a steady line up of visitors today. Not to mention eggs and frozen meals ready for a lazy night's dinner, we are so grateful to receive such amazing products to bless our community with! . .... #foodgracehope #dairy #extraspecialitems #eggs #frozenmealsrock #communitywork #volunteers See more

18.01.2022 This week's school goodies all packed and ready for delivery! We've been getting wonderful feedback from all our schools about how our service has not only helped supplement families in need with food; it has also encouraged community building and more parent involvement within the schools themselves. Chaplains, family liaisons, principals and teachers are coming together with parents, to co-ordinate the distribution of food to families which has been great in building commun...ity spirit! The Pantry WA is delighted to know we bring more than just food relief to our communities! . . #schools #foodrelief #foodgracehope #coordinating #teamwork #communityspirit #community #specialeducation

16.01.2022 A huge thank you in store to Ron Emery, owner of @kingswaybarbistro who blessed our hardworking team at The Pantry WA with a complimentary platter and pizzas for our first Volunteer's get-together! What a huge surprise for everyone that came this evening! And thank you also to @philipcouper for covering a very generous drinks tab!

15.01.2022 Can you spot the Chicken and Cheese Schnitzel and Mozzarella Balls tucked away amongst the pile of chef cooked frozen meals? And yes, they've all gone out to our community today! We hope you guys enjoy these delicious meals with your families - isn't it nice to have a night off from cooking once in a while?! . .... #foodgracehope #foodrelief #nightoff #timetochill #frozenmeals #delicious #haveabreak #chickenschnitzel #mozzarella See more

14.01.2022 How good does it feel knowing you and your family will have enough to eat this week as you walk out of our building with a trolley full of nutritious groceries? And after you thought that was it, you get topped up with a delicious variety of fruits on the way out and your trolley pushed to the car and returned by our volunteers? Thank you to some of our youngest volunteers, Eban and Angel who made sure our visitors received the extra goodies and service yesterday! They are ju...st two of the many amazing volunteers within The Pantry WA that are working tirelessly to look after you and your families every week! We just love what we get to do here! . . #volunteersarespecial #foodgracehope #community #extraspecial #wellfed #families

13.01.2022 Gearing up for another week! We've been getting an abundance of food thanks to our generous partners who have donated not only quantity but quality. If you or someone you know is needing food assistance, please get in contact with us or simply visit during our opening hours to pick up a trolley full of fresh and long life food items. See you soon for another great week!

12.01.2022 Here at The Pantry WA, we always try to provide our service with a smile, a laugh, a quick chat or just an encouraging word. Our front of house team is all about those things, and if you catch our back of house team, you'll get a double dose of friendliness! It's been a difficult time for so many in our community and these days, a kind word or action goes a long way! We love to feed your bellies, but we love even more to see lives changed. If you're reading this, why don't ...you join us and bless either a friend or a stranger today with an encouraging word or deed - you never know, it could be just what they need to make their day better! #encouragingword #foodgracehope #notjustfood #changelives #givinghope #kindness #kindnessgoesalongway

10.01.2022 We had the cutest little visitor to the Pantry today! Not too impressed to have her photo taken though! The Pantry WA prides itself in ensuring our community gets the best quality from the food that is donated and given to us. We have a wonderful team of volunteers who spend hours sorting through the food to make sure the good stuff goes to you and any not so good items are set aside for the chickens! Now and then we may also receive donations of pet food and with all ...the scrap food we have, we usually try our best to extend our services to your beloved pets! So feel free to ask if there is anything for your furry or feathery friend next time you're in for a visit and we might just have something for you to take home for them! . . #chihuahua #foodgracehope #petsarefriends #specialvisitors #community #petfood #chickenscraps See more

07.01.2022 Today is our national R U OK? Day, a day of action when Australians are reminded that every day is the day to ask, Are you OK? if someone in your life is struggling with life’s challenges. If you notice someone might not be their usual self, if you feel something is going on with their life, if you see someone seems different these days, trust that gut instinct and take the time to ask them "Are you OK?". And if they say they're not, take the time to listen, encourage actio...n and check in. That conversation could change their life, or even save it! You can visit https://www.ruok.org.au to get more information on how you can help make a difference. You don't need to be an expert to reach out - just a good friend and a great listener. . . #ruokday #friends #families #hope #foodgracehope #suicideprevention #helpingeachother #reachout #savealife

05.01.2022 Serving these two gentlemen today - always a fantastic idea to carpool in together or help out a mate in need by picking them up on the way! Or why not pick up some food for your friends and family if you're dropping by, just bring along their Centrelink details and we'll make sure everyone gets fed! We hope you all have a great weekend ahead and we're looking forward to a much sunnier week next week! . .... #foodgracehope #sunnydays #cloudydays #carpooling #friendshelpingfriends #community See more

03.01.2022 To all of you in our community, please be advised that due to the sudden lockdown as the result of a recent Covid-19 community transmission, The Pantry will need to remain closed for the first half of the week while we prepare ourselves to continue our services in a safe and compliant manner, in line with the government's response and restrictions. Please refer to our Instagram and Facebook pages over the next few days, to keep up to date about when we will reopen and the pro...cesses we will need to adhere to in order to continue providing all of you with food. When we return, please note face masks and social distancing is mandatory. As the health of our volunteers is highly valued, we will be unable to serve anyone who does not comply by the government's requirements. We thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation while we do our best to serve you all and keep everyone safe. Take care! Much love, The Pantry WA . . #foodgracehope #keepongoing #staystrong #lockdownagain #notagain #foodrelief

03.01.2022 One of our amazing volunteers, Brian, not letting any rain stop him from making sure our van looks the part! Brian is a star within our organisation, taking on any role he can to ensure The Pantry is serving our community at its best. What a legend. Without the wonderful volunteers we have in our team, The Pantry WA would not be what it is today! We take pride in our quality and excellence because we believe that is what our community deserves! . .... #qualityfood #foodgracehope #foodrelief #volunteers #teameffort #vanlife #servantheart See more

02.01.2022 This year we have been partnering with two phenomenal organisations, @the.good.food.project and Simon and Penny Walker from Street Chaplains to provide healthy and delicious cooked meals to many of our homeless within City of Wanneroo . And we've just found out that together, 2500 meals have now been provided to our homeless to date! Thank you to Dario and his team for their creativity and cooking skills in turning the ingredients provided by The Pantry WA into appetizing mea...ls, which are then handed out to those in need by the Street Chaplains. Team work certainly makes the dream work! Congratulations team! . . #teamwork #collaboration #foodgracehope #streetchaplains #homelessness #enddhomelessness #communitywork #foodgracehope

01.01.2022 Bread sorting! Just one of the many fun tasks we do at The Pantry. It's satisfying getting our bread stash in order so we can serve our community efficiently. . . #foodgracehope #bread #volunteers #funtimes

01.01.2022 To our Community, We are sad to say that due to the major food shortage in our stores, The Pantry WA was not able to receive any significant deliveries in the last few days and will therefore remain closed for the rest of this week. We understand how challenging this week may have been for many of you but we would like to encourage everyone to stay strong, stay indoors and remember that this will all be over in a few more days. ... We're thankful WA has been free of Covid-19 for the last 10 months and we look forward to reopening next week and resuming our services. Take care everyone!
