At our Drop-In on Monday, a group of medical stude

At our Drop-In on Monday, a group of medical students from Melbourne University came along with their new Health initiative 'Strive Clinic Outreach Project'. This is aimed at providing free health screening including blood pressure checks, wound care, health promotion and education.
They gave out health kits and information pamphlets (and also included lunch!). The program is aimed at predominantly for our Homeless visitors but the regular guests and volunteers at Avalon were very happy to participate in the experience.
Next year we hope that this will be a regular event at Avalon's Drop-In.

It was Tiger Time at Avalon!

The fence has been painted, along with Deb's and Francis's faces and the The Moving Wardrobe! Sir Lancelot has new attire and Avalon celebrated with a party at the Drop-In.
Francis was donated tickets to go to the match by an incredibly generous member of the Richmond Football Club. An exciting and wonderful day!

Lately, students from Lloyd street school came to volunteer at Avalon and helped to sort the clothes.
They were wonderful and caught on very quickly about the importance of giving out good quality clothing to the homeless.
We were all extremely impressed with the degree of caring and the in depth questions about the disadvantaged people we are helping!

Whether as a group or individual, if you're keen to volunteer at the Avalon, visit https://www.avaloncentre.org.au/ways-to-help/volunteer/ for more info!

It is amazing how a new pink hat or a change of attire from the Avalon Moving Wardrobe can brighten up your day!

The van, Avalon’s Moving Wardrobe, travels far and wide packed with clothes, bedding and shoes and goes out with a group of committed volunteers.

Avalon will be turning 32 next Sunday (Father's Day) and unfortunately we cannot celebrate on the day as we have other commitments with the Homeless.
So instead, we are celebrating with a wine and cheese evening next Saturday the 31st, between 5pm - 7pm! All are welcome to drop in and share a glass or two to toast 32 years of meeting unmet needs.
Please let us know if you plan to attend by calling 9569 2240.

Yesterday Avalon's Moving Wardrobe attended the National Homelessness Week Pop-up event at St Kilda.
It was a very busy time; food was provided, stories shared, clothes distributed and a true sense of community prevailed. Deb even welcomed the Mayor of Port Phillip!

In the past decade, homelessness in Victoria has increased by over 40% - and it continues to increase. With a lack of funding to support them, a huge percentage of people are homeless due to being unable to find affordable housing, amongst other factors.

The Avalon Centre aims to change that by providing support to those in need. And we are increasing our efforts further during Homelessness Week!

You can help too by joining us in the fight to reduce homelessness or helping anyone you come across out there in the streets, in any way possible!

Makeover Day at the Avalon Drop-In!

Yesterday, we had haircuts, nails painted and the 'Moving Wardrobe' having a complete refurbishment. Some very happy customers and a van even better equipped to help the homeless!

Good thing for the first day of Homelessness Week!

10 year-old Benjy arrived on the doorstep yesterday - laden with 2,000 pairs of socks to donate!
Benjy, who founded the charity, Socks4Support, donated last year to us and we were thrilled to see him once again. He is an amazing boy, whose compassion for the homeless is overwhelming!

At Avalon's Drop-In today , we celebrated the life of Danielle Khairy (Danni) who died last week.
She was always so full of life and provided so much joy to everyone at Avalon for over 20 years.
She will be deeply missed by us all.
