For four decades you have provided compassion, free meals, vital support and a smiling face to thousands of disadvantaged Australians every week.  

Beginning with a simple commitment to help the person in front of us, without judgement Bill and the team have stood alongside thousands through difficult times. 

The Foundation has now served over 9 million meals to those in need, including 427,000 in the past year alone, reaching nearly 26,500 people every month across Sydney. 

But the Foundation's influence goes far beyond food.  

It now delivers health and dental care, crisis support, drug and alcohol programs, and education for children, including a literacy program supporting 330 students across NSW and the NT — all with dignity and without judgement. 

Forty years on, the Foundation has helped make NSW a fairer, kinder place, standing beside our most vulnerable when it matters most. 

Thank you, Bill, and thank you to every volunteer who has given their time and energy to supporting those who need it most.
