As Anim Steel said, “Food can be a vehicle for social change. It brings people together in a way that very few other things can”.
With a belief in kindness with no strings, Mama Lana’s Community Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that provides assistance to the homeless and underprivileged people in the Penrith Valley community.
They distribute nourishing meals to an average of 35 to 85 people each night, six days a week, from Monday to Saturday. Sharing a meal becomes a powerful gesture, bringing people together, erasing barriers, and offering hope amidst adversity.
Mama Lana’s also provides crisis hampers to local families who are struggling and are at risk of homelessness.
Cancer Wellness Support regularly provides sleeping bags, blankets and surplus clothing from our op shops to aid in their efforts and meet the specific needs of each person.
We continue to foster connections with local charities so we can ensure our excess stock finds its way to those who need it most, benefiting both people and the planet.
