And we're back on the 'gram for another year! Here we have a gorgeous group shot from our first event of 2018, a QLD picnic in South Bank. As part of our Local Matters involvement for the month of January, @grilldburgers very generously donated 150 buns and some share salads, as well as volunteered their time by cooking up the delicious BBQ feast. Across their 4 CBD stores in Brisbane, they also offered free chips to anyone who mentioned "The Welcome Dinner Project" during January. We are so incredibly grateful for their support this month!

🌟 MERRY CHRISTMAS! 🌟 The Welcome Dinner Project wishes you all a wonderful day with those you love within your family and community.

It has been a pleasure sharing a story a day from WDP volunteers, coordinators and participants and we hope you have enjoyed reading these uplifting experiences. For the 12th and final day, we hear from beautiful Christine, whose involvement in the WDP made her feel a sense of Welcome and community for the first time in Australia.
