March 2024 Update

Grand Prix Success!

We had such an awesome time serving everyone at the 2024 Formula 1 Grand Prix in Melbourne with our Crêpes For Change food truck.

We served up a whopping 697 crêpes across the week of racing, which equates to about 159 hours of paid training for trainees in our flagship training and employment program, Pathways For Change. 🌟

Your support helps us to make a difference in the lives of young people at risk of or experiencing homelessness. You get to eat delicious crêpes and we get to empower young people to escape the cycle of homelessness. Win-win in our books!

Make sure to check us out at future events to help make an impact! ❤️

For Change Cafe, Lifeblood launches!

We are beyond excited to finally be able to share with you all our newest venture – For Change Cafe, Lifeblood.

We have partnered with Co-Ground to take over the Lifeblood Social Enterprise Cafe in West Melbourne. We want to say a big shoutout to the Co-Ground team, Lifeblood staff, and customers who’ve made this collaboration possible. 🙌

Co-Ground is a not-for-profit that directs 100% of their profits to support their local and global programs.

Co-Ground has handed over the operations of the cafe to For Change Co., where we will be integrating the venue into our Pathways for Change program and will continue to ensure that the cafe has a direct social impact on young people.

Trainee Takeover Day

We’re excited to announce that we are holding another Trainee Takeover Day! The day will be held at For Change Cafe, Middle Park on Friday the 19th of April. 

Not sure what Trainee Takeover Day is?

Trainee Takeover Days are where our trainee cohort does just that – taking over operations at our venue for the day, showcasing the skills they’ve learnt in our program, working as a team, and taking on extra responsibility! 

Make sure to come down to Middle Park to connect with us, learn more about For Change Co., and support our amazing trainees!
