Hope Cafe Fawkner fundraiser

Support Hope Cafe:

At Hope Cafe, we believe that a warm meal and a welcoming environment can make all the difference in someone's day. Every Thursday evening, from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm, we open our doors to serve free home-cooked meals. More than just a meal, we offer a safe, friendly space where people can gather, share stories, and build lasting friendships.

We have recently had our oven break and our now fundraising to buy a replacement oven. All the cooking is done on site, so it’s extremely important we buy a replacement oven so we can continue to cook our home cooked meals for our guests.

Our Mission

Since our opening on May 5, 2011, Hope Cafe has been committed to making a positive impact in our community. For over a decade, we have provided not only nourishment but also hope and connection to those who may feel isolated or in need of support. Our mission is simple: to create a space where everyone is welcomed, respected, and cared for.
