A4 Community Care Services “Building communities through love and support”
We are a provider of services to the community that focuses on bringing food to the table, offering support of a pastoral nature,
and holistic development to those in need. Our mainstay is to be a support for the community through the selfless giving to those in need.
We understand poverty, destitution, need and hunger. A4 was originally started by a family who came out from Ghana in Africa and who survived through the challenges faced by many new migrants. A4 has become an oasis of hope in this area. The vision that A4 has, which is to touch the lives of those who live on the wayside of society, people coming from other countries, struggling with going through cultural shock. A4 feels that there is more to give, than to simply live in Australia and enjoy what this country has to offer.
A4 has worked tirelessly for the past 17 years to enact and live this vision, to constantly be in a state of selfless giving back to the community. It is important for A4, in the first instance, to make sure that the basic human need of alleviating hunger is met for the community.
We believe in:
​
Accountability
A4 remains compliant in its adherence to every state and federal requirement for charitable
organisations.
Caring
We believe in the sanctity and value of human life. Every human life is precious and needs to be
valued and nurtured, which can become difficult if people are hungry. A4’s contribution to the
community is to help to reduce hunger. We care for each other and for those in need. We care
about adapting to the changes in society – as those changes impact the community.
​
Community
A4 is a non-discriminatory, all-inclusive organisation providing services to everyone in the
community, based on the concept of the Judio-Christian principle of “as you have done it for the
least of these people, you have done it unto me”.
​
Services
A4 provides free food, valued at between $200 to $400 for a nominal handling fee of $40.
The food pack generally resolves to provide for all meals of breakfast, lunch and dinner. Often,
additionally including something for the children. Products are healthy, fresh and wholesome. Food
packs always include meat or fish products, to ensure a main dinner meal for a family.
Integrity
From its inception up to now (which is 17 years), A4 has not wavered in its determination to
continue to offer services to and feeding the community. A4 started with nothing and can now say
that they are feeding about 10,080 families PER Year around 840 Families PER Month.
Despite the many challenges, A4 wishes that they could do more.
To continue to grow and keep moving forward, A4 continues sourcing assistance from an Advisory
Board from multiple disciplines to continue its work.

Matthew 25- 35 to 40
​
"For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
