Hosted by Jacinta Parsons and held at Rumi Restaurant in East Brunswick, the special evening featured a Middle Eastern feast prepared by hatted chef Joseph Abboud, bringing guests together to celebrate the impact of Meals with Impact and its unique approach to creating opportunity through food.

Meals with Impact provides paid employment and training for migrant women, helping participants build practical skills, confidence and experience while creating pathways towards meaningful and sustainable employment. Through its work, the organisation combines food, hospitality and social impact to help women take important steps towards economic independence.

Pressroom Philanthropy was delighted to support Meals with Impact by designing and printing stylish menu cards, table displays and a social media frame for the event. We were proud to help bring the evening’s visual identity to life and celebrate an organisation using the power of food to create connection, opportunity and positive social change.
