We’re thrilled to welcome Dama Dama Free Range back on board as a Lazarus partner!

The Castle Estate fire nearly spelled the end for Dama Dama, but thankfully they're back and better than ever.

Their wild-harvested venison has helped put plenty of hearty meals on the table for our guests before, and we're so glad to be cooking with them again.

Great to have you back, Dama Dama. 💚

Some people just fit right into the team at Lazarus, and Carina was one of them.

While studying Community Services at The Gordon, Carina spent time at Lazarus chatting with guests, helping out around the centre, and bringing a positive attitude to every shift.

Thanks for everything, Carina. The community services sector is lucky to have you!

🚨 Lazarus Reno Update!

The yard is coming together beautifully. Fresh turf is down and the raised garden beds are ready to go.

Once the new centre is open to guests, they'll have a green, peaceful spot to sit with a cuppa and enjoy some sunshine. 💚

🎤 A huge thank you to AHSPO and president Aldo Santo for donating $7,000 to Lazarus!

Our very own Michael Kenneady was invited to speak at the AHSPO 36th Annual Conference at Mantra Lorne, sharing the stage with Geelong legend Joel Selwood. Not bad company.

Thanks for having us, and for backing people doing it tough in our community. 💚

Thank you, Bellarine North Rotary Club!

Over the past year, Bellarine North Rotary has supported Lazarus in more ways than one, with financial donations as well as clothing for our guests.

Since Lazarus doesn’t receive government funding, support from local groups like Bellarine North Rotary keeps our doors open 365 days a year.

Thanks for your support. It means a lot to everyone here. 💚

A massive thank you to Tony and the team at East Geelong’s Quality Butcher for donating 1,100 quality sausages to Lazarus!
