The Give Where You Live Foundation’s Community Choice voucher program gives people in our community access to essentials including food, prescription medication and material aid.
We partner with over 25 local community service organisations (agencies) who distribute the vouchers to individuals and families, ensuring immediate assistance.
With support from the Percy Baxter Foundation and Shine On Foundation, the Give Where You Live Foundation distributes around $210,000 annually through the Community Choice program, supporting over 10,000 people each year.
The initiative provides choice and dignity for people seeking emergency relief and an opportunity for businesses in our region to be part of the solution, actively creating a fairer community and a supportive network that benefits everyone involved.
The Community Choice voucher generation and redemption platform, designed by software developer OK200, provides a simple and effective emergency relief voucher system which delivers real-time data insights, ensuring our voucher program remains efficient and responsive to community needs.
This program has an impact on many in our community – read more about how many were supported in 2024 in the Community Choice Insights and Impacts report below.
