Emergency Resources
We value everybody
Emergency Resources is a material aid program with the aim of helping people in our community who are facing financial hardship. Our main thrust is providing weekly food parcels.
Currently operating every Wednesday out of Christchurch Dingley, we ensure our clients are made to feel welcome. With a continuous ‘cuppa’ and freshly made sandwiches, our team of volunteers offer a relaxing environment where people can come to collect their Food, make friends and talk about whatever they’re currently facing in life. Our team are very compassionate and non-judgmental and want people to know they are cared for and loved.
Operated by volunteers and supported by donations, Emergency Resources has been successfully reaching people since 1994. This would not have been possible without the help of our volunteers and community sponsors.
