Volunteering with Gift of Bread is more than just collecting, packing and delivering bread!
This is your opportunity to make new friendships, increase your skills and give something back to the community.
Become A Volunteer Today
Volunteers form the backbone of our organisation. Volunteering with Gift of Bread allows you to connect with others, meet new people and build friendships. It’s a community event that is socially responsible, makes good use of surplus food and helps to improve the lives of the most vulnerable people around us.
Become a volunteer today. There are many fantastic opportunities for casual and regular volunteers available 7 days a week. We have morning, afternoon and evening shift vacancies available now.
An average shift duration is 4-6 hours. Hands on training and WHS inductions are provided. Many of our regular volunteers come together with family members and set a great community service example for our younger supporters.

Introducing school students to volunteering can be a life changing experience. It can help them build a deeper understanding of social justice and community issues.
Enrol Your School Now
Gift of Bread provides activities for supervised school groups at our Outreach Centres and Community Workshops that include training, talks and hands-on experience that can be linked to your school's curriculum or community program.
Volunteering gives students a way to develop social skills, connect with people in their community, find their purpose and help others in an authentic and powerful way.
Volunteering also helps young people increase their self-understanding, independence and confidence. It can create a positive change in their lives and the things they care about.
