✨ Taste testing day! ✨

Yesterday we had the pleasure of taste testing, with the help of some of our EP friends, a selection of delicious meals that will soon be launching under our Community Cart program 🍽️

A huge thank you to our talented chef for creating meals that are not only seriously tasty, but also nutritious, practical, and affordable — exactly what we want Community Cart to be about.

We’re getting closer to launch and couldn’t be more excited about what’s coming. There’s still a little work to do, but days like this make it all feel very real!

More details coming soon… so keep an eye out 👀💚

That’s a wrap on the Community Cart Christmas Hamper Project 🎄

This Christmas, Community Cart delivered over 120 food hampers, providing over $20,000 in essential food relief to individuals and families across Cairns & Townsville.

These hampers reached people experiencing a wide range of challenges — including families doing it tough, people impacted by domestic and family violence, homelessness, single-parent households, grandparents raising children, older community members on limited incomes, and people living with disability or mental health challenges.

None of this would have been possible without the incredible generosity of our sponsors, who believed in this project and helped turn an idea into real, practical support for our community. We are also deeply grateful to our volunteers and partner organisations who helped nominate, pack and distribute hampers with care and dignity.

A huge thank you to Kat in Townsville, and to Hans and Jenna in Cairns, for coordinating their regions and going above and beyond to make sure this project ran so smoothly.

Thank you to everyone who played a part — this is what community looks like.

Christmas in July

We had a fantastic time bringing some mid-year festive cheer to our community! From laughs and shared stories to a few cheeky Christmas jumpers, the spirit of giving and connection was truly alive.
