UCX

UCX Ltd is a not for profit organisation with the goal of creating positive experiences catering to diverse groups, to enrich the overall student experience at UC creating lasting memories through buy in and a sense of community, belonging and loyalty with the greater UC brand.

In 2020 UCX launched the "UCX Food Pantry" project, which was aimed to provide students with essential pantry items. Many students don’t always have access to food. The Food Pantry hopes to give UC students access to free food supplies multiple days a week. The Food Pantry would be open to students for up to 8 hours per week split across 3 days and will stock a variety of food items, most of which will be non-perishable in order to avoid wastage. This project aims to encourage healthy eating, enable and support students struggling financially to continue to eat properly. Since this project has been running for more then a year now. We have developed an understanding of how great this program is for students, the feedback has been incredible and we have begun providing more essential products such as toiletries and some clothing items. This essentials have been requested by students as they can be quite expensive and they struggle to buy them

Givit would assist in sourcing non-perishables and essentials in order to have a constant flow of these products for students.

United Minds Community Services

We understand that funding the financial gap between the Medicare rebate and Psychology fees can be a challenge and for some, it is impossible. Sadly, many people miss out on much needed psychological support because they simply cannot afford it. Unfortunately, the low increases we have seen with the Medicare rebates over the last decade have meant bulk billing is now financially unsustainable for businesses. To help bridge this gap, we have introduced Community Funded Sessions (CFS). To enable CFS for the Community we seek funding through grants & fundraising. All funds raised through these efforts allow us to fund most of the cost for psychological sessions on behalf of people who cannot afford it or who, due to their circumstances, would struggle to access our service without the support from a CFS place. There is a small co-payment fee of $20.
