Who We Are
Who is BeefBank?
BeefBank is a charity established by the Rotary Club of Brisbane Centenary Inc. Our sole purpose is to provide meat (usually beef) to charities supporting Queenslanders in need.
It might seem strange that the Rotary Club of Brisbane Centenary should set up a charity solely to distribute meat. However, charities like the Salvation Army, church groups and welfare organisations that provide these meals have very little access to meat protein. This is of course an important and essential source of nutrition in any diet, especially for families. BeefBank is the Rotary Club of Brisbane Centenary’s way of assisting other groups in providing meals for those in need.
BeefBank partners with many others to enable the supply of meat. Our partnerships include cattle buyers, farmers, state prisons, abattoirs and transport companies and allow us to function in the most cost effective and efficient way.
