Reaching our Community
Through Services, Projects and Partnerships
Hocking Stuart Frankston Meal Vouchers Perishable Foods and Meals
Pictured above: Hocking Stuart (HS) Frankston have
continued to sponsor the majority of our monhtly bill
cost, paying for hot meals vouchers that are redeemed
at Mama Lee’s restaurant in Frankston by our clients that
don’t always have access to cooking facilities. HS Frankston
team have also been supportive of our 50th anniversary
promotion and we thank Adrian and his team. CSF has continued to grow its perishable foods and meals
programs through relationships with national food recovery
agencies, other services and local businesses. In the 2017-
18 financial year CSF received and distributed more than
16,000 kg’s of recovered foods, including fresh fruits and
vegetables, between OzHarvest, SecondBite and FareShare
alone.
Getting Mobile 2.0
Following the pilot of the Getting Mobile Project, connecting
people with a mobile phone and providing practical digital
literacy skills and assistince, CSF is still working in partnership
with low cost telco ’Better Life’ to connect vulnerable
people with a mobile phone in a sustainable way.
All too often we see people who are in debt with mobile
phone contracts. The Getting Mobile 2.0 program is about
connecting eligible clients with a free mobile phone and a
contract they can afford and be supported with.
CSF would like to develop a funding relationship with
a group or business that could help us keep more of
our clients conneceted with a mobile phone, allowing
them greater connection and support with services.

It takes a community
The Avocare Kitchen Worx program has continued to be our
most reliable supplier of healthy pre-prepared meals. The
6000+ meals, cooked locally at Ebdale Community Centre,
are very important to our Emergency Food Relief program.
