Meals That Matter
Corporate team building that feeds the community.
Cook together.
Give back together.
Bring your team together for a hands-on, memorable volunteering experience that makes an immediate difference.
Meals that Matter is One Meal's corporate cooking program, where your team prepares fresh, nourishing meals for people experiencing food insecurity, homelessness, domestic violence, disability and financial hardship.
Every meal you prepare is distributed through our network of charity partners or directly to people who need it most.
It's team building with purpose, with meaningful impact on the community.
What’s involved
More Than a Team Day
Your team won't just be volunteering - they’ll be creating thousands of moments of dignity, hope and connection.
Working alongside experienced One Meal volunteers in our commercial kitchen, you'll prepare nutritious meals that are delivered directly into the community.
A team of 20 can prepare approximately 250-300 nutritious meals in one session - providing immediate support to people across Sydney and beyond.
No cooking experience is needed - just enthusiasm and a willingness to make a difference.
