There’s no doubting Taree Community Kitchen’s volunteers and donors provide an exceptional service. Since CatholicCare took over the operation in 2015, 10,000 meals have been served. CatholicCare recently invited Deputy Premier of NSW, John Barilaro, and Member for Myall Lakes, Stephen Bromhead, along to celebrate this special milestone… and they made it a party to remember!

Christmas.

For many of us it’s a joyous time, celebrating the birth of Christ and encompassing family traditions, celebrations with friends, gift-giving and the sharing of food. However, for the 10,000 children and young people living in Permanency Support Programs (foster care) in Newcastle, the Hunter and Central Coast, it can be a very different story.

Imagine for a moment you’re in your car, stopped at the traffic lights, with your two sons in the back seat.

Appointing a person whose role is “Manager, Practice, Development & Innovation” says a lot about an organisation.

On Friday 27 October CatholicCare hosted a lunch at Harrigan’s Irish Pub in the beautiful Hunter Valley, as a way to say ‘thank you’ to our wonderful foster carers who provide a safe and secure home to vulnerable children and young people.
