Hospitality NT President’s Lunch

2024 Presidents Lunch

The Hospitality NT President's Lunch is an annual event for Hospitality NT members and industry stakeholders to network and celebrate the festive season and also serves as an opportunity to raise funds for worthwhile local charities.

The 2024 President's Lunch was held on Tuesday 19th November at the Beachside Pavilion at Mindil Beach Casino Resort.

This year over $60,000 was rasied for Foodbank NT. Foodbank NT works to alleviate hunger and food insecurity. They procure and collect surplus food from various sources, including retailers, manufacturers, and growers, and distribute it to people in need. Foodbank NT aims to provide essential food support to vulnerable individuals and families, helping to improve their well-being and quality of life. The establishment of the operations in Darwin and Alice Springs, is supporting their mission - to get the most good food to those in need in the most efficient way possible, helping to reduce hunger in the Territory. In 2025 they will look to open another store in Katherine. 

In addition to raising much needed funds for NT Foodbank, the 2024 President's Lunch also acknowledged two industry legends 25 Year Service Awards to Lori Gardner and Leigh Jennings.
