Alternatively, you can also offer Blessing Bags Melbourne proceeds or a percentage of the sale of your product. It’s a great way to let your customers know that your business stands for social justice and gives back to the community by supporting people experiencing homelessness.

Blessing Bags Melbourne would like to acknowledge the Wurundjeri and Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation as traditional owners and custodians of the land on which we work. We acknowledge that the land was never ceded and we pay our respect to them, their customs, their culture, to elders past and present and to their emerging leaders.
