Looking To Volunteer? Support Change...

​Food For Change is always looking for volunteers to fill various roles in our organisation - whether you have a green thumb or not….
 
Volunteering at Food For Change you will become part of a community of likeminded people and use your experience and skills to make a meaningful contribution to help us to support the growing of nutritious crops for those most in need and help us on our mission to alleviate food insecurity in Australia.

Corporate Volunteering

As well as our regular weekly volunteers. Food For Change has opportunities for Corporate Volunteering on our farm in Melbourne. The corporate volunteering days are a great way for your team to bond and make a contribution to the local Melbourne community. The corporate volunteer day encompasses all the tasks we undertake including harvesting the crops and loading them for the food relief organisations to take away and feed those in need.

Our corporate volunteering days are free and take part on Wednesdays & Fridays each week - rain hail or shine!

​If you and your team would like to have a corporate volunteering day with Food For Change farm in Melbourne, please register and a member of the team will be in contact.
