Donating at Transit

At Transit, every meal, every smile, and every moment of care begins with you.
Because of our generous donors and partners, hundreds of local families each week find more than food - they find hope, belonging, and a reason to keep going.

Your support keeps the lights on, the ovens warm and our shelves filled for those who’ve fallen on hard times. Whether it’s a box of groceries, a monthly gift, or a workplace fundraiser, every contribution helps restore dignity and rebuild lives across Victoria’s South-East.

We welcome donations of all kinds and sizes. Whether you choose to give once, monthly, or by rallying your community... you’re helping to turn compassion into action and reminding our guests that they’re not alone.

    Donate Funds

    Every dollar given to Transit goes straight back into serving our community. Your support helps us provide fresh meals, groceries, and care to local families doing it tough — nothing is wasted, and every contribution makes a real, visible impact.

    Donate Food

    We welcome donations of fresh produce and unopened pantry items to help keep our shelves stocked and meals cooking. Every contribution, large or small, supports neighbours doing it tough and reminds them they’re not alone. Please ensure all items are unopened and within expiry dates. 

  • Run a Food Drive

    A food drive is a simple way to make a big impact. Rally your school, club or workplace to collect pantry staples and fresh food for local families. We’ll supply everything you need to get started (posters, checklists and drop-off details) and we’ll make sure every item finds its way to someone who needs it.

    Corporate Donations

    Build your social impact close to home. Your organisation’s support - through financial gifts, donated goods or professional expertise - helps us feed local families, serve hot meals and deliver wrap-around support that connects people with health, legal and social services. Together, we can help people break the cycle of hardship and build brighter, more stable futures.
