Get involved with our Sutherland Shire Community Co-Op
This program is run alongside One Meal, Hopefield and Orana.
It enables us to establish inward food supply that operates at a scale that makes the required logistical effort worthwhile, effective and impactful. It also allows us to approach wholesalers and large businesses for support. Similarly, the outward delivery of food to recipients uses established charity distribution channels to reach the areas of most need across the community.
We also work to ensure referral mechanisms are in place with our partner charities to ensure community members accessing food through our program are also able to access additional services offered across the network for example counselling, financial support and housing assistance.
Some of the food relief organisations working with the Co-op to support families and individuals in need include:
- One Meal
- Orana
- Hopefield
- The Salvation Army
- Crossroads
- Revitalise church
- Kurranulla
- Southside Care
- St Aloysius
- Caringbah Seventh Day Adventist Church
- Platform 9
- St Francis School
- Urban food
- Sutherland Shire Family Services inc.
