Program going strong…
P4K – Help the Homeless (P4K-HTH) are making a remarkable difference for the homeless individuals and families in need! Increasing numbers of people are facing hardships due to increased inflation. More Homeless people require more volunteers and extra food, thus stretching the budget and placing pressure on volunteers.
Support provided…
P4K-HTH provide hot home-cooked meals including a dessert and soup in winter. In addition, bread, fruit, drinks are available together with other donated goods such as clothes, shoes, toiletries, towels, and blankets.
Along with physical support, they are building meaningful relationships with the Homeless individuals and families…learning and sharing stories, growing the sense of community.
Current Schedules…
- In Melbourne they continue feeding and helping homeless individuals and families with homemade meals every Tuesday evening.
- In Brisbane they support the Emmanuel City Mission & Hope Ministries both situated in and around the Brisbane CBD. The Cook 4 Jesus program where locals cook home cooked meals has restarted and Barra Boys Fish & Chip program is in full swing.
- The Sydney program is paused due to a lack of volunteers, and its funding is redirected to Brisbane currently.
Challenges…
- With so many more homeless people who need support, it is difficult to prioritise whom to help.
- Dealing with the Homeless and Street people is not easy and sometimes dangerous.
- More volunteers are needed to restart helping the Homeless in Sydney.
