For June, July & August, we are running a Non-Perishable grocery drive.

All donations of Non-Perishable food items and toiletries are greatly appreciated

As it is officially winter, we are now launching our winter appeal for 2025. Any amount helps, no matter how big or small.

We are a registeted charity, so all donations are tax dedictible.

If you are not in a position to be able to donate money, we are also running a winter food drive. We are after non-perishable food items and toiletries to distribute to people in need this winter.

Thankyou to our community for your support!

In January 2025, in conjunction with Bega Valley Shire Council, we conducted free cooking classes for teens! These were called “Quick Bites, Easy eats for teens” And was based around our Chop Chat Chew Program.

Each session saw between 8 and 12 teens come together and cook a meal. Some recipes were quite basic, others were more complex.

The program was a fabulous success & was enjoyed by all.

Saturday 26th October We were awarded a Highly commended trophy at the Bega Customer Service & Business awards!

We got some new signage installed at the Pantry on Sunday 29th of September!

A big Thank you to Jarrod & Tanya from Allsigns Bega for their fabulous work!

Last November we recieved a grant from the IMB Bank's IMB Community Foundation to purchase Defibrillators & First aid training for our volunteers.

We have now completed all aspects with this program and would love to whole heartedly thank the IMB for their assistance in this funding to be able to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all volunteers and visitors to the Sapphire Community Pantry.

Chop Chat Chew has come to an end for 2023 - what was it all about?

It all begins with an idea.
