Bring Your Team Together This August (and Support Some Amazing Causes)

August is packed with meaningful causes and the perfect excuse to rally your team together for something bigger – and a little tastier! Whether you’re supporting Daffodil Day, Red Nose Day, Jeans for Genes Day, Homelessness Week, Loneliness Awareness Week, International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, Bullying No Way Week, Wear It Purple Day, or another important fundraiser, there’s never been a better time to bring the crew together, make a difference, and enjoy food that’s as good as the cause.

We know corporate life can be busy, and finding time to connect can be a challenge. That’s where Soul Origin Catering comes in. From morning teas to afternoon bites, we make it SO easy to host a workplace fundraiser that’s equal parts impactful and delicious.

Make Your Fundraiser Unforgettable

1. Crowd-pleasing platters
Our fresh wrap platters, salad pots, grazing boards, sliders, and seasonal fruit platters are perfect for teams of all sizes. Everything is beautifully presented and full of flavour – because great food gets everyone in the giving spirit!

2. New products that are SO good
Turn your August event into something special by including our brand-new Carrot Cake boxes (available in 8 or 15 pieces) or the new SO Buns catering range. Sweet, savoury, and downright moreish, they’ll get the office buzzing.

3. A fundraising-friendly vibe
You focus on raising money for a good cause – we’ll handle the food. Pre-order up to 90 days in advance, so you’re organised and stress-free on event day.
