CHPS Asylum Seeker Food Drive
Hi everyone - it’s so good to be able to see each other in person again!
Now we’re back I’d like to remind you about our CHPS Food Drive.
The Asylum Seeker Resource Centre needs our donations more than ever for so many families who don’t have enough food.
Here are the most-needed items:
- Tuna in oil
- Tinned tomatoes
- Tinned vegetable peas, corn, carrots
- Tinned legumes chickpeas, lentils, red, black & white beans
- Coconut cream
- Sweet or savoury biscuits
- Black tea bags
- Instant coffee
- Pasta 500g packs penne, spirals, shells
- Full cream UHT milk 1 litre
- Laundry powder
- Dishwashing detergent
- Soap bars
- Deodorant
- Shampoo & conditioner
- Buy sanitary pads through www.tsuno.com.au
Remember – even one can or a packet of pasta is a huge help!
You can also donate online through Coles:
- Go to shop.coles.com.au -> Log in or sign up to Coles (right-hand side of screen)
- Select ‘Choose a collection time’ on the right-hand side of screen
- Select ‘Choose another collection location nearby’

At school the collection tubs are still in the MPR foyer.
