Buy a Brick fundraiser
FoodShare is dedicated to ensuring no one in our community goes without the food they need, rescuing and distributing meals to local agencies and schools that support people facing food insecurity.
We are raising funds to build a new, purpose-built facility that will significantly increase our capacity to collect, store, and deliver more nutritious food where it’s needed most.
The new Hub will connect education, community, local business and food producers in a dynamic model that will promote economic recovery and resilience of local communities while minimising food waste, promoting sustainability and encouraging good nutrition across the region.
The FoodShare Hub will incorporate:
- Food rescue, preparation and distribution – the Hub will provide the facilities necessary for food rescue, sorting, storage and distribution operations to support a fair and accessible cross-border food relief distribution system.
- Education – a wide range of educational programs will be embedded in the daily operations of the Hub, providing immersive, practical and applied learning opportunities, meaningful work experience and an opportunity for students to learn and work alongside industry and community partners.
- Support services – meeting spaces and consultation rooms will be accessed by a range of support service providers to ensure that comprehensive and holistic support is available to those accessing the facility.
- Social enterprise – the facility would support social enterprise initiatives, providing open plan spaces for pop up outlets that support the principles of sustainability, reduced waste and repurposed food.
