24.01.2022 Canberra Relief Network is coming together. CRN hopes to be ready mid next week.

24.01.2022 Hats off to Bum Nuts Australia for yet another donation of beautiful Bumnuts! This load of 3,780 little bundles of gold will be heading out the door soon and into the trucks. Hope the agencies we visit have plenty of egg recipes! #supportlocal #community

23.01.2022 With the unprecedented impact of COVID-19, after devastating bushfires, drought and floods, OzHarvest is experiencing an overwhelming need for food relief, at a time when resources are more limited than ever. We need your help. Donating $1 to OzHarvest provides 2 meals to vulnerable communities. If you are able, please give what you can and help us support Aussies in need. https://www.facebook.com/donate/211731283275484/

23.01.2022 Big hearts can transform the world, in our case the OzHarvest Canberra office. Thank you to the admin team from Campbell High and Bunnings Warehouse Australia, and especially Sue Kelley. We are grateful for the facelift!

19.01.2022 One of the new courses at the ACT Recovery College this term is NEST - NUTRITION EDUCATION SUSTENANCE TRAINING run by OzHarvest Canberra.

More information about the program can be found at https://www.ozharvest.org/what-we/nest-nutrition-education/ See more

16.01.2022 The Woolworths team at Franklin shared Christmas cheer donating hampers to the Canberra community. A BIG thank you to Emma leading from the front and sharing the good will for those in need with your crew.

14.01.2022 Wasting food wastes EVERYTHING including precious water ! Our freshwater is already in short supply, so it’s crazy to think we waste so much of it producing food that never gets eaten! Our supporters Icon Water would love to see YOUR photos that celebrate the value of water in our everyday life. Our resources are precious, let’s value them by not wasting food #wastefreewednesday #fightfoodwaste #foodwastefact #savewater

09.01.2022 Our friends from Protiviti Canberra dropped in today to #CookForACause at #CanberraCollege. 160 meals were prepared, cooked and packed, and then taken to local Canberra charities. Job well done......and great teamwork!

06.01.2022 Thank to the generous fresh food stall holders at the Southside Farmers Market. Your beautiful produce will kick start our deliveries to people in need today! What a bounty!

05.01.2022 Last week Gabriel Tapia, Manager of Commonwealth Bank Fyshwick came into the Canberra office on Monday to make a $500 donation to OzHarvest.

04.01.2022 Our magnificent Canberra team are currently looking for a tremendous individual to join them as Canberra City Manager in all the amazing work they do. Are you or someone you know ready to lead our team who are passionate about helping the community? Find out more at www.ozharvest.org/our-family/join-family/

04.01.2022 Our team would like to assure all Canberrans (and our friends in Queanbeyan) that our service continues as always. While food rescue donations are down due to panic buying, we are still doing our best to rescue and deliver as much as we can to our community partners. At the same time, we are proud to be a part of a large scale emergency relief food project being put together in Canberra. This network will source food and essential supplies from major distribution centres arou...nd the country and put together hampers for those in need during this current crisis. http://www.canberrarelief.com.au/ It is very important that everyone understands we are NOT buying or taking any item (food or other items) from any local supermarkets. The essential supplies are being sourced and purchased through a stimulus package by the ACT Government. Our operations have no effect on the public's access to scarce supplies....at all. Please be patient as our team set up for what could be a very anxious time for many. We have always and will always support our community.

03.01.2022 Our OzHarvest NEST team have created a private Facebook Group for their NEST program. Get access to delicious NEST recipes and useful resources including OzHarvest’s qualified nutritionists and dietitians. We hope to see you there! http://www.facebook.com/groups/ozharvestNEST
