Be part of the action!

Become a BreezeWay volunteer and take action to end homelessness in Ballarat.

Every lunchtime since January 1, 1998, a dedicated crew of volunteers has been behind the stove working to provide hot meals and sandwich packs for those in need across Ballarat.

During this time, volunteers have served up more than 500,000 meals and put a smile on the face of the many thousands of people who have come through their doors.

“I've never worked at an organisation with such compassionate and hard-working individuals.” – a meals volunteer

If you have 4 hours a month to spare and a passion to make an impact in the lives of people we support, by creating a place for people to feel safe, to belong, and to connect. We would like you to join our dedicated team.
