Emergency food relief
Rising rent, grocery and energy bills are putting families, international students and temporary residents in the City of Whittlesea under real pressure. Sikh Community Connections provides free packs of essential groceries to people who need them, and welcomes everyone who wants to help.
How we're helping
Whether you need support or want to give it, there is a clear way forward.
Free grocery packs
Request a bag of essential, non-perishable groceries such as rice, lentils, flour, masalas and long-life milk. It takes a couple of minutes to ask for help.
