Street outreach & meals
We go to where people are — sharing hot meals, cold drinks and a conversation with people living on the streets.

Serving humanity with love
Care for people. Put smiles on their faces.
Debbie Cares For You Foundation is a Melbourne-based charity bringing hot meals, school supplies and moments of celebration to people in need in Africa — given in person, with love.
How we help
Three simple ways we show up for people — all of them hands-on.
Children's celebrations & school supplies
Birthday cakes, exercise books and pens: small things that tell a child they matter and help them stay in school.

Essentials for people who need them
Food, water and household basics for families and for people living with disability, whose needs are too often overlooked.

Small acts. Real people.
Every meal, every notebook and every visit is given face to face by people who care. Nobody we meet is a statistic — they are neighbours, and we show up for them.
About the foundation
We exist to care for people in need with dignity, generosity and love — and to put smiles on their faces.
Stories from the field
A few moments from the work.
An evening on the street
Volunteers walk the streets with packed meals and cold drinks, stopping to talk with everyone they meet. For many, it is the first hot meal of the day.
A birthday for every child
Cake, candles, songs and a gift pack of school supplies — a celebration that tells each child they are seen.
Essentials, delivered
Rice, water, biscuits and household basics, bought in bulk and handed over in person to the families who need them.
