The Give Where You Live Foundation is proud to be a long term partner of The Outpost, providing support through collaboration, grant funding, and the Community Choice voucher program.
The Outpost is thrilled to have moved into a new home in Geelong’s CBD, after 20 years in the Busport building on Brougham Street. Now with meals cooked in their own kitchen, the Outpost will continue to serve food to those in need and those experiencing the challenges of food insecurity 365 days a year. The new premise has a larger capacity than the former site and features a community pantry, where guests can access everyday essentials, access to clothing and toiletries, and a gathering space for social connection.
The Outpost was a Pitch Up 2024 participant and a recipient of a Give Where You Live annual grant in 2024. These grants provide much needed support to ensure the lights stay on, food is warm and the kettle is boiling so that The Outpost can continue to offer its guests dignity, connection and community.
Give Where You Live Foundation CEO, Zac Lewis recently met with The Outpost’s Amy and Corinne in their new venue to learn all about the work they do in the community, while Meg and Sally from our Impact team were treated to a tour of the site to see our grants in action.
Thank you to the hardworking and dedicated team at The Outpost for creating a fairer Geelong community with us.
