Ten years of CUDL

thank you

Dear CUDL volunteers,

For ten years, CUDL has fed our community, and it is because of you.

To our cooks, thank you. Week after week, you turned kitchens into places of solidarity. You prepared thousands of meals with care, skill and love, often at your own expense and always on your own time. Every plate you filled was a statement that no one in our community should go hungry.

To our drivers, thank you. You gave up your weekends, your petrol money and your sleep-ins to make sure the food got where it needed to go. Rain, heat or holidays, you showed up, and the work simply could not have happened without you.

And to every volunteer who served food, thank you. You did more than hand over a meal. You greeted people by name, you listened, you treated everyone with dignity and respect. That is what people will remember most.

As CUDL closes its operations in every state except Queensland, we want to let you know that we will be closing down payments. However, this is not the end of the work. We will soon be putting up new ways for you to continue supporting CUDL Queensland financially, so that the meals, the solidarity and the community care can carry on. We will share those details with you as soon as they are ready.

A decade of feeding our community is something to be deeply proud of. Thank you for every meal, every kilometre driven and every conversation shared. It has been an honour.

any questions please email info@cudl.org.au that will be monitored for the coming months.

In solidarity,

CUDL Team In all states closing down
