The Father Bob Maguire Foundation is a Melbourne-based registered charity providing food relief, social inclusion, educational support and a range of associated services so that no one is left behind. 

Our Mission

Our mission is simple, to provide material, emotional and social support to whomever, whenever and wherever necessary. We come across barriers to this every day, but the strength of our mission is to overcome them with the force of community volunteers. 

Our Vision

Father Bob’s vision has always been to end homelessness and disadvantage. We are facilitating the establishment of a caring community, by the community, for the community. Our programs give kids a fair start to life and everyone a fair go. All have the right to be nourished physically, mentally and emotionally. No one will be left behind.  

Our Activities

In order to realise our vision, we have created a number of core activities. These are:

COMMUNITY MEALS

Our fleet of HopeMobiles deliver much much more than nutritious meals. Through welcoming service and good conversation we nourish hearts, minds and tummies.

ADVOCACY & INNOVATION

We are working actively with the community to make our society easier, safer and more fulfilling for all. We work with our own people and with other like-minded organisations.

 

COMMUNIty PANTRY

Our Community Pantry provides a warm welcome to those needing assistance. Stocks will always vary but we generally have a good range of pantry and fresh food, frozen pre-cooked meals and toiletries.
