Past Programs
Cooked Meals
We had a vast range of meals which are cooked fresh ready to heat and frozen meals that can be heated at your convenience.
OZHarvest prepared these nutritious fresh and frozen meals and, in association with CASA, are distributed to vulnerable people or who are experiencing food insecurity.
This service was available every Thursday 3.00 pm – 4.00 pm to eligible people.
*Conditions Applied.
Due to the unprecedented impact of COVID-19, many people have lost their jobs so there was a great need for social welfare.
CASA feeds people and helps them with basic needs during financial hardship.
We are committed to empowering our community’s low-income earners by providing easy access to high-quality nutritious meals.
Cooking Demonstrations
