This year, Communities@Work will spend over $100,000 to purchase food and essential items to assist over thousands of vulnerable and disadvantaged Canberrans, including people suffering homelessness; people fleeing domestic violence; people suffering with mental health; and those who just need a helping hand.
To help us offset the significant cost of purchasing food for people in need, Communities@Work would be very grateful to receive donations of food and essential items. This can be run as a drive for a set period (we recommend at least 2 weeks), or as an ongoing activity in your office.
Running a food drive is easy and a lot of fun too. It is also a great way to involve your team, foster greater awareness of community issues, develop team building and make a real impact in the lives of people in need. We can provide all necessary materials, including a PDF poster and other materials to help promote your activity.
Together, we can achieve great things for our community!
