Five loaves would like to thank Coles South Melbourne for joining us on our mission to feed the homeless community.

When we think of a full trolley at the supermarket we don’t stop to think about what one full trolley can do for people in need. Over the last three weeks we have collected over 8 full trolleys worth of products for our Food Truck Feeding program that will go straight to those who need it most.

This Food Truck Feeding Program is all about turning good intentions into actions, and Coles South Melbourne has helped Five Loaves turn an idea to help those who need help into a reality ♥️
