A big thank you to all our generous customers. Together, we raised just over $2400 for the Baxter and Surrounds Community Pantry, better known as The Panty. In addition to these funds, we have also offered to source a much-needed additional fridge for The Pantry.

Pictured are Paul Mercurio MP, a great supporter of The Pantry, a very grateful Gail Gailey, one of The Pantry's community volunteers, and Michael Durkin, representing the team at our two Somerville Direct Chemist Outlets.

The Pantry is a lifeline for families facing financial hardship, providing them with food and support. A testament to the power of community, The Pantry is a volunteer-driven charity. It's a place where food donated by both Somerville and Baxter Woolworths, along with many local community members, is transformed into a lifeline for families in need.

All of us at the two DCO chemists love being part of the health and welfare of our Somerville Community. So when we see an opportunity to give back, particularly supporting members of our community who are doing it tough, we jump at it.

We would also like to thank our local State Member, Paul Mercurio MP, for bringing us together with The Pantry and supporting us along the way. Paul is a great supporter of The Pantry, supplying much-needed goods from his trolly by the checkouts in Woolworths Somerville, amongst other sources.
