16.01.2022 We want to thank the City of Greater Bendigo for their Community Grants Program. We have been able to replace 6 clunky old fridges and freezers with just 2 brand spankers! This will save on energy as well as making our job so much easier.

16.01.2022 What an awesome bunch of kids and an amazing school that would be so generous! Certainly made our day and I know it will make many others smile! Thankyou #eaglehawkprimaryschool

15.01.2022 IMPORTANT NOTICE - PLEASE READ. Apologies to all our wonderful customers, but due to stage 4 lockdowns, we have been forced to close our op-shop and cafe space. Our youth theatre, playgroups and mentoring programs will also be on hold. Our counselling will be online only. Good news is our little trial space set up just to provide support to the homeless will remain open with take away meals available for breakfast and lunch. We can still provide tea and coffee as well as over...night packs. If you are not homeless but find yourself in a crisis situation we will still look after you. We will provide service from the front door while the weather is good. Thank God for the amazing group of volunteers and staff that will make themselves available to look after you! MAKE A DIFFERENCE CHANGE OUR WORLD! See more

12.01.2022 We've joined forces with Be.Bendigo and the City of Greater Bendigo to launch a new crowdfunding initiative to support hospitality businesses, while providing c...ooked meals to people in need. With the money raised by Cafes for COVID, we'll pay local hospitality businesses to cover the cost of cooking meals that will go to people struggling to afford food via our network of food relief agencies. Every $1 counts - please donate if you can via GoFundMe Fundraising https://loom.ly/Gi4GjZ4
