Share your passion for food

Contribute when it suits you

volunteer times that fit your schedule

Most of our programs run in schools during school hours, but we also have workshops and events we’d love to have you be a part of on evenings and weekends.

Witness your impact

Connect with kids and food knowledge-holders in our community to share in the joy of hands-on gardening and cooking.

VOLunteer with your team

Looking for a meaningful team-building experience that gives back to the community? LunchLAB’s Corporate Volunteer Program offers organisations the opportunity to support school food education while engaging in a hands-on volunteer experience.

As part of this program, organisations provide a monetary or in-kind donation, which helps sustain LunchLAB’s work in schools. In return, we host a specialized, one-time volunteer session for up to four employees, where they’ll work alongside students and chefs to help prepare and serve a meal.

Corporate volunteering is a great way to foster team connection, engage with the local community, and make a direct impact on school food programs.
