All profits go towards food relief for Victorians experiencing food insecurity. Each week we distribute hundreds of nutritious and culturally appropriate meals across Melbourne. Our volunteer program, which provides training and capacity-building for marginalised people facing barriers to employment, is now based at our Carlton North cafe 'Sibling'.

Meet Nina. Nina’s been volunteering with us for over 3 years - first at Kinfolk and now at Sibling (which she prefers because the floorplan is easier to memorise). Nina was initially drawn to the program by a partnership with Cathy Freeman Foundation, and has been a regular fixture ever since. She likes working the floor and thinks it’s really important to greet customers and make them feel welcome through a good customer service experience.

When she’s not volunteering at Sibling, Nina likes to keep busy - working at an Op Shop, going to yoga and the gym - and most importantly walking her new labrador, Polo.

When asked if she’d recommend the volunteer program to friends she says “I wouldn’t just recommend it to friends, I’d recommend it to everyone! If you normally have anxiety applying for jobs, don’t worry. Everyone’s included - no matter what race, or whether you have a disability.”

Nina’s glad to be back and looking forward to adding more coffee-making know-how to her skillset.
