Your Support Can Change a Life — Donate Today
Our Vision & Mission
A South Coast where no community goes hungry and every person has the support to build a more secure and sustainable future. To provide immediate food relief to vulnerable households while building a caring community network that helps families move forward with dignity and hope.
Our Promise
At Maggie's, no one should feel invisible. We believe support should be practical, personal and given without judgement. Every parcel, meal, visit and donation is an opportunity to remind someone that their community has not forgotten them.
Meet Maggie
Maggie’s South Coast Foundation started around her kitchen table. She was seeing more and more families in the community struggling just to get by.
Parents trying to put food on the table. Pensioners stretching what little they had. People who had lost their jobs and suddenly didn’t know how they were going to get through the month.
She couldn’t just look the other way - so she started helping wherever she could. Cooking meals, putting together food parcels, delivering what was needed and, sometimes, simply sitting down and listening to what they had to say.
Along the way, she realised that people don’t only need food or basic necessities - they need to know that someone sees them, that someone cares, and that asking for help doesn’t take away their dignity.
This is her community, and these are people who deserve to know they don’t have to face difficult times alone. Maggie’s started with one person wanting to help.
Today, with the support of others, we can reach so many more

Maggie is phenomenal! Thank you everything you do for this community!
If it weren't for the monthly food parcel that Maggie supplies, I honestly do not know what I would have done. She is a gift from God! Thank you sweet girl!
I am a SASSA pensioner and I'm bound to a wheel chair - plainly said - I cannot work. Maggie reached out to me and the help and support I've received from her has been EVERYTHING and so much more. I cannot thank you enough!
