COOK. CONNECT. CREATE CHANGE.

CEO CookOff, OzHarvest’s flagship fundraising initiative, returns this October and November with events taking place in cities across Australia - and we’d love you to be part of it.

This is more than a fundraiser. CEO CookOff brings together Australia’s leading chefs, business and community leaders, and corporate teams for an unforgettable night built around food, connection and impact. Together, you’ll cook, serve and share an incredible meal with guests from OzHarvest's supported charities. Breaking bread and having conversations that will stay with you long after the night ends.

This is about food, connection and compassion - all driven by one ambitious goal: to raise $2,500,000 to deliver 5 million meals in 30 days and help OzHarvest continue its mission to 'Nourish our Country.'
