About Us
Community Services #1 provides assistance and care to people across all stages of life. We offer a wide range of programs including a community food pantry, early childhood education, aged care services, community support groups, senior’s activities, out of hospital care, home care packages and more.
How your donation will help
It’s widely known that the past few years has been increasingly financially difficult for a growing number of families and individuals. We have noticed a huge increase in requests for help as they seek assistance to put food on the table.
Our food pantry provides relief by providing access to affordable good quality fruit and vegetable and groceries to people in need. Many families say that without this help they would not be able to make vital payments such as rent, medical bills and pharmaceuticals.
We will use donated funds to increase the offering in the pantry in order to enable us to help more people who need assistance.
