Food Drive for Refugee Week returns in 2023! You can donate much needed items to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre Foodbank at Maribyrnong Libraries between Monday 19 June and Sunday 2 July.

By donating you can make a difference to people seeking asylum by providing one of the most basic human rights: food.
