Rise & Nourish Initiative

Rise & Nourish is a women-led program at TPA Suwung that combines daily nutritious meals for children with real income pathways for women and girls. It was created to respond to the reality that at the landfill, food security and livelihoods are deeply connected.

Support Women’s Products

One of the most valuable ways to support the program is by helping create regular sales for products made by women involved in it.

We welcome:

  • cafes and shops interested in stocking cookies and other baked goods

  • partners who can support sales, distribution, or recurring orders

  • organisations or individuals looking for products for events or gifts

Stock or Order Products

Share Your Skills

Volunteering in this program is focused on sharing useful knowledge, not fixed daily shifts.

We welcome people who can:

  • teach recipes or baking techniques

  • share nutrition, food safety, or small business skills

  • support women in developing and improving their products
