We provide emergency food, toiletries, clothing, furniture and homewares to people in dire need. We do this daily through our Emergency Aid program and our Material Aid program.

Helping Hands Mission Inc.

Helping Hands Mission Inc. is a not-for-profit, community-based organisation established in 2007, primarily operating in Victoria, especially Melbourne's north west suburbs. It provides vital support through Emergency Food Aid and Material Aid programs.

History

Helping Hands began as a small outreach project focused on regional Victorian communities. Over time, it has evolved into a significant presence across Victoria, supporting over five hundred families each week through its aid programs and operating multiple Op Shops.

Services

  • Emergency Food Aid: The organisation runs two Community Pantries in Airport West and Sunshine, offering emergency food parcels to those in need. These pantries operate by appointment and provide essential items such as fresh produce, frozen goods, pantry staples, and toiletries. Helping Hands feeds over 3000 local families weekly.
  • Material Aid Program: This program provides essential household items like furniture, bedding, and white goods. It caters to specific client needs, often supporting families affected by family violence. Assistance is offered through referrals.
  • Community Kitchen: Located at the Airport West Op Shop, the Community Kitchen serves hot meals daily, offering a community hub for social interaction and support.
  • Furniture Collection: Helping Hands collects furniture in good condition for distribution in their op shops. Proceeds from sales contribute to the Emergency Aid programs.

Community Engagement

The organisation relies heavily on donations from the community and maintains partnerships with numerous aid agencies to ensure comprehensive support for diverse community needs. Helping Hands also collaborates with over sixty other charities and organizations to extend its reach and impact.

Impact

Helping Hands Mission Inc. supports approximately 800 families with food relief each week and feeds an additional 600 individuals. This substantial outreach underscores its commitment to addressing the needs of Victorian families facing challenging circumstances, such as illness, family violence, or sudden income loss.
