AMPLIFYING OUR MISSION:
ALEX MAKES MEALS IN THE SPOTLIGHT

At Alex Makes Meals, we're humbled and grateful for the spotlight shone on our mission. Through these media engagements, we have been able to amplify the urgent message about food security issues in Melbourne and draw attention to the challenges faced by our disadvantaged youth.

Melbourne's charity landscape is vast and varied, yet the press has repeatedly acknowledged the unique approach and heartfelt dedication of our team. From our inception during a time of global crisis to our rapid growth, driven largely by the passion of our volunteers, our journey has been nothing short of inspiring.

Media coverage doesn't just tell our story; it brings to the forefront the reality many face, giving a voice to those who might otherwise be unheard. It reinforces the importance of community, collaboration, and, most importantly, compassion.

We also recognize that every article, interview, and feature serves as a call to action. It urges individuals to donate, to volunteer, and to be a part of this impactful change. Here, we have compiled a collection of our media appearances and articles, celebrating not just our milestones but the unwavering support of the Melbourne community.
