Emergency Food Relief Application Form

The Curtin Student Guild is running an Emergency Food Relief program for currently enrolled Curtin University students experiencing hardship as a result of COVID-19.

Requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and outcome is subject to individual circumstances and resources available.
Support will be provided in the form of a voucher which can be used on groceries and essential items.
Confirmation and collection instructions will be issued via email within approximately one week of submitting your application.

Additional Support Available
Guild Frozen Meals

The Guild also offers a range of free heat-and-eat frozen meals. These meals are available to collect from Guild Reception (B106F) any time during opening hours (9am - 4pm, Mon-Fri).
These meals are offered in addition to the Coles e-voucher and will not affect your eligibility for the Coles voucher. Students are encouraged to make use of both of these services.
Students are welcome to simply drop in any time to collect (no need to confirm or book ahead of time). If you have any follow up queries, please email food.support@guild.curtin.edu.au.

Curtin Food Pantry

Curtin Volunteers! are running a Community Pantry out of Curtin Connect, Blg 101.
The Community Pantry is a place to access non-perishable food items and other essentials.
Donations have been generously provided by Curtin staff, to support Curtin students facing financial difficulty during this challenging time.
Remember the pantry motto – take what you NEED, give what you CAN.
Access the Pantry in the foyer of Curtin Connect Building 101, Bentley Campus.

If you are seeking any additional advice or assistance whilst awaiting an outcome on your application for a food hamper, please contact the Guild's Student Assist team directly via student.assist@guild.curtin.edu.au.

Please be advised that due to the large number of students seeking support, applications may be delayed slightly longer than a week on some occasions.

This initiative is proudly supported by Lotterywest.
