Transit Soup Kitchen and Food Support

09/11/2026

We were bursting at the seams at Transit tonight! Every chair was filled, the foyer was full, and with no seats left, some guests were receiving each course in takeaway containers out the front.

It wasn’t ideal. We want everyone who joins us for dinner to have a seat at the table, enjoy their meal and spend time connecting with others. But we don’t want to turn people away simply because we’ve run out of room.

A huge thank you to our wonderful kitchen and serving teams for the hard work and care that went into tonight. Behind every meal are volunteers giving their time to make sure our community is fed and welcomed.

We pray that God blesses the food we serve and the lives of our guests, and that each person leaves knowing they are loved and valued ❤️.

A big thank you to Preferred Training Networks for generously providing our volunteers with the opportunity to participate in their Public Frontline Leadership course, free of charge.

Des and Mel recently took part in the course, facilitated by Damian, gaining valuable knowledge and skills to help them grow in their leadership roles at Transit.

Investing in our volunteers is an investment in the people and community we serve. Opportunities like this help equip our team, build confidence and strengthen the work we do together.

Thank you, Preferred Training Networks, for investing in our volunteers!

CHRISTMAS IS COMING, AND WE NEED YOUR HELP!

This Christmas, we'd love your help putting a little extra joy under the tree for local children and teenagers.

Transit is collecting brand-new, unopened toys, books, games and gift vouchers for children and young people from birth to 17 years.

But there's something a little different about how we do Christmas at Transit.

Rather than simply handing out pre-selected presents, we invite parents and carers to come along to our special Christmas Shopping Day and choose a gift for their own child.

They get to choose something they know their child will love, wrap it up and put it under their own Christmas tree.

For the children, it's simply a Christmas present from their family. And for parents, it's the joy of being able to give.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Donate a brand-new, unopened gift!

COLLECTION WEEK: 30 NOVEMBER – 4 DECEMBER

Drop-off at Transit:
Monday 11am–7pm
Wednesday 9am–3pm
Thursday 9am–4pm

5/3 Webb Street, Narre Warren.

Let's make Christmas a little brighter for local families!

A little late in posting… but what fun!

Des, our incredible volunteer Head Chef, was invited to cook alongside Curtis Stone as part of the Coles Community Food Relief Appeal!

We weren’t sure when we could share the photos, and then life got busy! But we couldn’t let this one slip by. What a fun day and what a privilege to be invited.

A huge thank you to Coles and Secondbite for including Des in such a special experience.

And Des, thank you for planning every single 3-course meal cooked at Transit, and for the incredible leadership, care and dedication you bring to both of our volunteer kitchen teams. You ensure every meal prepared sends a message of dignity and love to our guests, and that is something truly special.
There’s so much that goes into getting those meals onto the tables, and we’re so grateful for everything you do for us and our guests.

A Huge Thank You to Raveen and Casey Relay For Life 2026

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Raveen and the amazing team at Relay in Casey for their generous donation of canned goods to support local community members in need.

Your kindness and commitment to helping others make a real difference to families experiencing hardship. Every donation helps provide essential food relief and reminds people that their community cares.

Casey Relay For Life is more than just a fundraising event. It brings the community together to celebrate cancer survivors, support those currently facing cancer, honour the memories of loved ones lost, and raise vital funds for Cancer Council's research, prevention, and support services.

Thank you for your generosity, compassion, and dedication to making a positive impact both in the fight against cancer and in supporting vulnerable members of our community.

If you haven't already, please take a moment to like and follow Relay in Casey and support this important cause and perhaps join in next year. Together, we can make a difference and help create a future with less cancer and stronger communities.

🎉 Look who's back visiting! Our amazing Dot dropped in today! She's still got plenty of recovery ahead, so she's not back officially just yet, but it was so lovely to see her smiling face around the place. We've missed you, Dot! Take all the time you need.

🚴 We also had a special guest join us for breakfast: Tom from Belgium! Tom is pedalling all the way from Brisbane to Melbourne, a trip of around 42 days. Not the best weather today, but we hope a good breakfast gave him the fuel to keep those wheels turning! Safe travels, Tom! 🇧🇪
