Youth Projects
x Zinc partnership
We love putting on a feast, but we know that conferences and events can often leave plenty of good food behind. Don't worry - our social conscience is strong. We're proud to partner with Youth Projects to ensure no good food goes to waste.
Through their initiative, The Living Room on Hosier Ln in Melbourne's CBD, they provide free healthcare and support to improve physical, mental and social well-being of people experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness. If there's food left over from your event, rest assured it will be donated to The Living Room, ensuring more people in need have access to fresh, healthy food.
