How a simple lasagne started a new movement

by Alex Dekker

Description

At the start of Covid in 2020, I was doing what most 20-year old’s do.  Studying and having fun.  One day, my sister worked who was working on the frontline at Monash Hospital as a doctor, complained about not having enough to eat in her busy schedule.  Happily, I offered to make her a lasagne.Today that lasagne has grown into me heading a movement hungry for change. Alex Makes Meals now delivers around 4,000 meals to those in need. I was only 20 but I made this happen. It’s been hard work, but I believe I can show others how if they have an idea, they can run with it and make a difference.
