Testimonials
Community Canteen has been a passion of mine for the past five years. There are many people that need help and by providing freshly prepared meals for those that are homeless or at risk is a small gift I can give to make a difference. It is encouraging to see how gratefully our work is received. It is also a great to work with the other volunteers - nice to be involved with likeminded people.

Walking around the streets of Brisbane I could see people in need of help, but I wasn’t sure what I could do. By volunteering with Community Canteen to provide a cooked meal for the homeless and vulnerable I can make a small difference in someone’s life.

I really enjoy volunteering with Community Canteen - we have a lot of fun while doing something worthwhile for the community. While it’s a lot of fun, I see it as a serious commitment that goes in my calendar and I always turn up as rostered.

It's an honour to be involved with the great grassroots organisation that is Community Canteen. I have gained and learnt so much from the opportunity to help prepare and serve meals directly to people in the local community who need them. Talking with our clients, learning their stories and even just chatting with them about ordinary, everyday things has enriched my life immeasurably.
