They also have no cooking utilities or equipment<br \/>\naccessible.<\/p>\n<p>They aim to provide 1410 meals per year for an estimated 109 women and 126 children.

Providing 2- 3 main meals plus dessert over a week, which would aim to meet 50% of an individual\u2019s daily recommended serves of fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy, and grains, would improve\u00a0 their overall nutritional intake, and this would assist recovery from trauma and establishing a new\u00a0 safer and healthier life.<\/p>\n<p>To help kick off the program they would be very grateful for food donations; mainly pantry staples listed below to get the program started later this month, before Christmas.<\/p>\n<p>You can drop off at the <strong>CHO Office, Uniting Church , 23 William Road, Christies Beach<\/strong> (please contacts us before if you can)<\/p>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t get to the CHO office text (0418 416 176) or email (<a class=\"mail\" style=\"color: black\" href=\"mailto:welcometocho@gmail.com\">welcometocho@gmail.com<\/a>) for other drop off options.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for helping get this project started before Christmas, and more importantly, the women and children fleeing domestic violence in southern Adelaide.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Community Health Onkaparinga PANTRY LIST\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Tinned tomatoes<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Pasta \/ lasagne sheets<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Onion<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Garlic<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Ginger<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Frozen veg \u2013 peas \/ corn \/ caps<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Salt \/ pepper<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Potatoes<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Carrot<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Flour<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Eggs<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Cocoa<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Bi carb<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Milk \u2013 long life<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Butter<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Tinned fruit<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Oil<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Sugar<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Tinned chickpeas \/ lentils \/ beans<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Spices \u2013 cumin, coriander, paprika, garam masala, cinnamon, nutmeg<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Any other cooking staples you think would help (e.g. stock)<\/p>\n<p><strong>THANK YOU<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Kaye Mehta is working with Community Health Onkaparinga (CHO) and Southern Domestic Violence Service on a program called, \u201cFood for the Flight\u201d.\u00a0 The purpose of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":384,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-514","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/384"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=514"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/514\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=514"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/nutrition\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
