Our Dine with Heart campaign is now at an end and we have been thrilled with the support we have received from a wonderful community of chefs, restaurants, cafes, bars, schools, workplaces, individuals and community groups. Monies are still being collected and we hope to be able to release details of what we have raised by mid July.
May was Melburnians’ opportunity to EAT GOOD. DO GOOD. FEEL GOOD. To dine out and simultaneously support those in our community experiencing homelessness, social isolation and disadvantage.
Some 33 venues and community groups across Melbourne joined forces to fundraise for Sacred Heart Mission’s Meals Program, which provides hearty, free meals for up to 400 people every day of the year.
We've enjoyed burgers, tacos, pizzas, beer, wine, hampers, cocktails, parmas, prawn crackers, roasts, curries, high teas, soups, pasta, pancakes, stir fries, brunches, dinners, lunches, breakfasts, coffees and teas!
We've received great reports from happy punters and we've enjoyed getting together with friends to Eat good. Do good. Feel good.
And of course there was the memorable and delicious Dine with Heart Gala Dinner held on 1 May the stage of St Kilda’s gorgeous Palais Theatre.
Our sincere thanks go out to everyone who donated their time and talent and supported our campaign.

If you love food and eating out then visit a participating café, restaurant or bar and help support our Meals Program.
Host a drinks, a dinner, a lunch, a brunch, or a breakfast with your favourite people. Enjoy good food and good company, knowing you are helping feed people in need.
Sign up your school to get involved with your own Dine with Heart. You can host a bake-off, market sale, BBQ, or wear red day to raise funds that feed people in need in your community.
Run your own Dine with Heart activity at work. Whether it's a bake sale, food related games, or a ‘no coffee jar', you'll have fun and raise awareness.
Our Dine with Heart Gala Dinner on Tuesday 1 May was a fantastic success, raising $85,000 for our meals program.
