💛 A night of kindness, connection and little moments that matter in Brisbane 💛

Last night, our Serve the City Brisbane volunteers were back at ECM’s Night Sanctuary, where evenings are about so much more than a warm meal and a safe place to rest. They’re about dignity, belonging, kindness and making sure that those experiencing homelessness and hardship in our community feel welcomed, supported and seen. ❤️

And what a beautiful evening it was!

🛏️ We rolled up our sleeves and got the beds ready, preparing a welcoming space for the night.

🍽️ We helped serve dinner, with plenty of smiles, laughter and conversations along the way.

💌 And this time, we added a little something extra! Our volunteers wrote handwritten notes filled with hope, encouragement and warm wishes, leaving them on each bed for guests to discover. Little messages of kindness, just waiting to brighten someone’s evening. 💛

And then came our favourite part…

We all sat down for dinner TOGETHER! 🫶

Volunteers and guests, side by side, sharing food, stories, laughter and genuine moments of connection. Because at the heart of everything we do is a simple belief: kindness isn’t just about what we give, but also about the time we share and the connections we make.

What an incredible reminder that sometimes the smallest gestures can mean the most. ✨

💛 AND WE’RE BACK ON 3 NOVEMBER! More shared meals, more kindness and more beautiful moments together. We can’t wait!

BRISBANE, yesterday was SO. MUCH. FUN. 💛🚗🙌

Uber cars kept rolling up, bags of donated clothing kept coming, and our yellow-shirt crew got stuck in—with plenty of laughter, teamwork and snack breaks along the way! 😂🍴👕

Our Serve the City Brisbane volunteers spent Saturday afternoon at the Uber Australia x Australian Red Cross Clothing Drive, helping unload donations and load collection containers alongside the Red Cross team. A few hours together, new friendships and a very good reason to roll up our sleeves!

And behind all that EPIC FUN? EPIC IMPACT. 🌏❤️

Those donated clothes will get a second life through Red Cross Shops, helping raise funds to support people facing disaster, hardship and crisis in Australia and around the world. Every bag moved was a practical contribution to that work—and our crew brought the energy! 💪💛

A HUGE thank-you to our wonderful volunteers, to the epic Australian Red Cross team for welcoming us, and to the Uber team for the food, snacks and fantastic atmosphere!

Red and yellow tshirts were all over the place - what a wonderful day!❤️💛

🏮 LIGHTING THE WAY FOR OUR COMMUNITY! 💛

Yesterday evening, our Serve the City Brisbane volunteers joined MS Queensland at Roma Street Parkland for the Moonlight Walk, their biggest fundraising event of the year!

And what a beautiful evening of community spirit, connection and solidarity! ✨

Our volunteers were there throughout the afternoon and evening, painting faces (kids and adults alike! 🎨), handing out lanterns, helping at the left luggage tent and capturing special moments beneath the stunning lantern display.

But beyond the activities, what made the evening so special was seeing hundreds of people come together in support of those living with MS and neurological conditions, walking side by side with family, friends and loved ones. So many stories of courage, resilience and love. 💛

For our volunteers, it was another wonderful opportunity to give a few hours of our Saturday, meet new people, share conversations and support an organisation making a real difference in the lives of Queenslanders.

Because volunteering isn’t just about what we do, it’s also about the people we meet and the connections we make along the way. 🌍

A huge thank you to MS Queensland for welcoming us and for the incredible work you do every day, and to our wonderful Brisbane volunteers for bringing their energy, kindness and community spirit to the evening! 🫶

💛 BRISBANE, OUR EVENINGS OF KINDNESS ARE GROWING! 🌙

Yesterday was World Homeless Day, a day particularly close to our hearts here at Serve the City Brisbane, where supporting people experiencing homelessness and hardship, and building genuine connections across our community, has been part of our journey from the very beginning.

And what better occasion to share that our partnership with Emmanuel City Mission (ECM) is growing, with new evening volunteering opportunities supporting their Night Sanctuary! 💛

For many people experiencing homelessness, nighttime can be the hardest part of the day. ECM’s Night Sanctuary provides a safe and welcoming place to sleep, a warm dinner, showers and amenities, and the opportunity to rest surrounded by care and human connection.

Our volunteers will now be helping make those evenings possible!

🌙 WHAT WILL WE BE DOING?

From 4pm to 7pm, we’ll be helping set up beds for the night, preparing dinner, welcoming guests and spending time chatting, sharing stories and connecting with the community.

It’s about lending a practical hand, but also about something we care deeply about at Serve the City: making sure people feel seen, welcomed and part of a community.

📅 UPCOMING SHIFTS | 4–7PM

💛 Tuesday 20 October

💛 Tuesday 27 October

💛 Wednesday 2 December

💛 Wednesday 23 December

We’re incredibly grateful to the ECM team for the work they do every day and for welcoming our volunteers into this next chapter of our partnership.

Come spend an evening with us, bring a friend and help make Brisbane a little kinder! 🫶

LIGHTING THE WAY FOR OUR COMMUNITY! 🏮

Yesterday evening, Serve the City Brisbane volunteers joined MS Queensland at Roma Street Parkland for the Moonlight Walk — their biggest fundraising event of the year, and one of the most moving nights we’ve been part of.

Our volunteers worked alongside the MS Queensland team all afternoon and evening, from face painting for kids (and more than a few adults!) to handing out lanterns for walkers to carry, helping people with their bags at the left luggage tent, and capturing photos of walkers under the stunning lantern display at the heart of the festival site.

Multiple Sclerosis affects one in four Queenslanders who are living with MS or a neuro condition - people of all ages, and their families and loved ones alongside them. What struck us most was the sheer bravery, solidarity and love on display. People walking, laughing, holding lanterns high - not letting their condition define them, and showing up for each other in the most powerful way.

We’re so grateful to have been part of it. Giving up a Saturday to serve our local community, work alongside an incredible organisation doing life-changing work for thousands of Queenslanders, and share in so many warm conversations and new friendships — that’s exactly what Serve the City is about. And seeing kids light up over their face paint, all in support of such an important cause, was the cherry on top.

A huge thank you to MS Queensland for having us, for the incredible event you put on, and for the vital work you do every day. And thank you to every Serve the City Brisbane volunteer who gave up their Saturday afternoon and evening to make it happen.

🔧💛 Brisbane, there’s something special about a community that comes together to repair, reuse and give things a second life at a Repair Cafe!♻️

Yesterday, our Serve the City Brisbane volunteers were back joining our friends from the Repair Café Woolloongabba helping with setting up and supporting the activities as the Repair Cafe started with chats, a friendly smile and a warm coffee cup!

The Repair Café is a wonderful community initiative that brings together people with different skills and experiences, all working towards a common goal: reducing waste, sharing knowledge and encouraging more sustainable ways of living. 🌱

But what we love most is the community spirit behind it! It’s not just about fixing broken items, it’s about people taking the time to help one another, sharing conversations, learning something new and making meaningful connections along the way.

A big thank you to the wonderful Repair Café team for welcoming us back, and to our volunteers for giving their time to support another fantastic local initiative! 💛

📅 We’re back on Saturday 12 December!

Come along and volunteer with us at the next Repair Café in Woolloongabba! Whether you’re a regular volunteer or looking to join us for the first time, we’d love to have you as part of the team.

🙌 Sign up and reserve your spot!

💛 Good people, great conversations and a community that keeps growing!

Yesterday evening, we came together for another Serve the City Brisbane Social Connect! 🌟

It was lovely to see new faces joining us, familiar volunteers reconnecting and people from different projects finally getting the chance to meet each other outside of their volunteering shifts.

Because Serve the City is about more than showing up for a project. It’s also about creating a community where people get to know each other, build friendships, share experiences and find a sense of belonging through doing good together.

Whether you’ve volunteered with us for months, joined your first project last week or are simply curious about getting involved, there’s always a place for you at the table! 💛

And we’re already looking forward to the next one!

📅 Thursday 5 November - Tippler’s Tap South Bank from 6:30pm
👋 New faces always welcome — and bring a friend!
