Good morning, to our amazing Malanda community.
Our community Pantry that is run weekly, Thursday's from 12:00-1:00 has seen an increase in community member’s accessing this support.
Life is expensive and ensuring your family or household has enough food week to week can be stressful.
ECHO community pantry is about helping provide food security to anyone in our community.
Our Pantry is looking a bit empty.
Therefore, ECHO is putting a call out for any Pantry items that anyone can spare to be donated to our Community Pantry.
Knowing that these items will be greatly appreciated by community.
Community helping community.
If you have anything to spare from tin items, unopened packaged items, including cereal, flour, rice, sugar, lunch box items- your pantry essentials
Please drop of to 13 Eacham Place Malanda 4885
Did you know SPAR has one of our Red Bin’s?
This is also another drop off point for any donations
Thank you

Look what the amazing Emma has put together for R U OK day. Starting the conversations around- how do you ask someone if they are ok? What can you do if your not sure how someone is feeling? What have you found helpful when someone has asked if you are ok?
As a community working towards breaking down the barriers of checking in with each other.
Watch this notice board as an interactive space will be added shortly.
Thank you Emma for your creativity and hard work in putting this together.
