Sikh Volunteers Australia started the year by expanding their service, which provides free meals to people experiencing homelessness in Melbourne, to travel hundreds of kilometres delivering free meals for bushfire-stricken communities in regional Victoria. Since the start of the COVID19 pandemic, they have also prepared and delivered 400 meals a day to people in need across Melbourne – totalling an astonishing 127,400 free meals (as of 26 November).
