Set free care
Our Story
Since 1996, Set Free Care has existed to truly care for people in need. Our Charity was birthed out of a demand for food from our most vulnerable community members.
Today, we have continued the good work of providing food to people in need, while also offering added support for specialized community services. To offer someone a Hand-out is very honorable, but we believe that a Hand-Up is truly lifechanging. Our team is dedicated to meeting people where they are at, and being a support for them during difficult times.
We will continue to partner with other charities and community organizations to best support people in our community and our prayer is that they would be able overcome the trials that they are facing, and step into freedom.
Pantry packs are a $20 pack of a variety of pantry items, stock varies week to week but items in the pack can include cereal, a meal base either rice or pasta, some snack food and sometimes something sweet. When available pantry packs also come with extra items, these can include fridge items such as fresh milk and/or freezer items such as chicken and/or fruit n veg. These extra items are subject to availability.
We are proud to be associated with the Gold Coast Homelessness Network. We also partner with other specialized support services to better facilitate the needs of our local community. It is our great pleasure to call these organizations our community partners.
