We need more storage! We’ve had to refuse generous donations because of storage issues.

Do contact us at (03) 9569 2240 if you have a large storage area or storage unit that we can use to store donated furniture for Avalon’s Homes for the Homeless programme.

Our moving wardrobe is working hard to deliver clothing, shoes and toiletries to the 2,000 homeless people living under hotel accommodation in Melbourne!

It is anticipated that the need for our services radically increase next year, but we are ready to face anything with such dedicated and hardworking volunteers! ❤️

Our team @avaloncentre is committed to reaching out to Melbourne’s homeless population. While the COVID-19 pandemic has added some extra challenges - we continue to go out into the community to provide clothes, shoes, bedding and personal care items. We are currently asking for donations of men’s clothing, particularly warm winter coats ❄️.

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.
