The proposed ‘Free Community Kitchen’ idea roots in the Sikh faith - to treat everyone equally and promote brotherhood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUoH_CtMd6Q This kitchen is OPEN to everyone irrespective of their backgrounds The Sikh community: - has actively volunteered to foster multi-cultural bonding in Cardinia Shire region - is keen to further support food van projects and multicultural events - owns 20-acre land that shall house proposed kitchen and veggie gardens - seeks 73% of project funding only (operational and maintenance costs borne by Sikh community) - proposes to integrate sustainability in kitchen’s design and operations - project has attracted local support

1. foster multi-cultural engagement
