Gifts for dads this Father’s Day

Make a donation of a Father’s Day Gift Pack and help support fathers seeking asylum in our Melbourne communities.

If you’re looking for a gift that will make a difference, our Father’s Day Gift Pack is just perfect. These simple items include essentials for Dad and baby, and a treat to share with the family.

6. Select ‘Click & Collect’ in the Wednesday 9.00am–11.00am time slot. Choose ‘No bags’
7. Start shopping!

Don’t forget you can also bring donations directly to the ASRC at 218 Nicholson St Footscray any weekday between 10am and 5pm.
