What an incredible initiative โค๏ธ meeting community needs, one bag at a time, one life at a time with the love of Jesus.
1 in 6 children in Kwinana are facing food insecurity every weekend. ๐ฆ๐ง
To combat this, the Kwinana Salvos have started Munchie Mates, an initiative to ensure students have access to food. ๐
Each Thursday backpacks of food are prepared for the students and taken to the school. Every Friday the bags are given to the children the school has identified. On Tuesday the bags are returned to be filled again. ๐๏ธ
Each bag contains about $14 worth of food including cereal, milk, fruit, muesli bars, chips, noodles, spaghetti, baked beans, jelly, juice and snacks. ๐ฑ
Any help with goods or financial support would be greatly appreciated so that we can continue supporting the most vulnerable in our community.
