Food drive for Mary Mac's Place

A Woy Woy shopping centre will collect non-perishable food for Mary Mac's Place throughout June.

Donated items go towards food hampers for Mary Mac's companions, those experiencing hardship and financial difficulty in the local community.

Mary Mac's provides more than 80 hot meals to local people Monday to Friday, as well food hampers, washing and shower facilities and a vital link to services such as Legal Aid and housing providers.

Mary Mac's Place co-ordinator Ms Catherine Pantehis said: "Often members will visit purely for social contact as they live by themselves.

"Food donated during Deepwater Plaza's food drive helps us stock our pantry for the next few months which means we can continue to provide this vital service."

Donations will be received at a collection point outside Coles Supermarket at Deepwater Plaza.
