Imagine being pregnant, breastfeeding or caring for young children and opening your cupboard to find there is nothing left to eat.

When a mother tells us she has no food at home, Ubuntu responds.

Our Emergency Food Hampers provide essential food to mothers and children experiencing crisis, including asylum-seeking and refugee families, single mothers and families facing severe financial hardship.

But we provide more than food.

Behind every hamper is a mother with a story. We listen, offer emotional support and help her access other support she may need — because sometimes an empty cupboard is only one part of a much bigger struggle.

A bag of food may seem small, but to a mother in crisis it can mean:

“My children will eat tonight.”

It can mean dignity. Relief. Hope. And knowing that somebody cares.

At Ubuntu, we believe no mother should face hardship alone.

Ubuntu — “I am because we are.”
