Organisation Summary

At Bendigo Foodshare, the vision is for every person in Central Victoria to have dignified access to healthy food. Their work focuses on dignified food relief, preventing hunger, food literacy and skills for youth and refugees, school breakfast and lunch programs, growing and cooking programs, community pantries, and food systems change.

This work is guided by the Bendigo Foodshare Strategic Plan 2026-2030 which sets out their vision, purpose and values.

With the help of over 400 passionate and dedicated volunteers and many food donors, corporate supporters, community organisations and generous people, Bendigo Foodshare sources food and distributes it to people in need across Central Victoria via 100+ food partners. Their dual strategy to prevent food poverty and build food security means they also work with, and educate communities to grow, cook and share healthy and affordable food.
