A list of volunteers over the past year would near 1000...

Most volunteers help out in the kitchen sorting, chopping, cutting, mixing, baking and generally having a great time. And with a nigh on nil attrition rate of regular volunteers, there must be magic going on in our kitchen… Many volunteers come in to the kitchen regularly, others when they can.

Many others lend their time and skills to help in other ways, such as fundraising, administration, or writing and designing our newsletter and website. We have architects, bankers, marketers, real estate agents, designers and writers. Fenton Communications recently chose us as their pro bono client, and NAB employees lend their skills and expertise outside of the kitchen.

Our volunteers have a great time actually making a real difference in the Melbourne community, and most return time and time again.
