Meal Delivery Program



The Mental Health Foundation Australia aims to assist the community in many ways - especially those in need of immediate assistance and support. We are planning to deliver over 500 freshly cooked vegetarian meals every Wednesday within the City of Knox.


We are requesting the community to be part of this giving process. To get involved, we ask anyone who is able, to donate groceries / staples or a sum. Your support would mean a lot to us and to those who will benefit from these meals. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of individuals and families in need.

Donations are tax deductible


We are a registered Public Benevolent Institution (PBI) with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC). As such, all donations over $2 are fully tax deductible. Your contribution not only makes a positive impact on mental health but also provides you with a tax benefit.
