Launched back in August 2019, the free food fan provides dinner to homeless people on Mondays and Tuesdays nights.
Bathurst mayor Bobby Bourke, who is heavily involved with the running of the op shop, said he's glad to see Domino's getting on board with the food fan.

"If anyone wants a feed of pizza, come down and get around it on Tuesday evening," he said.
Domino's operation manager Thomas Dibley said the Bathurst stores are keen on supporting people in need.
"We're donating the pizzas for people in need and we've been going out into the community, helping people in hard or difficult times," he said.
"Every week we've been donating pizzas to frontline workers.
"We've given to the Lithgow Hospital and to the team at the Bathurst Ambulance Station, with the leftovers going up to staff at the hospital."
Domino's donation of 20 pizza will be a one-off for the food van.
Cr Bourke expects more people to drop by the food van for a feed as the weather warms up.
"Winter was cold and wet," he said.
"As summer is coming around, more people will be coming out and we find people just want to have a yarn."
The Bathurst Community Op Shop free food van is open from 5pm on Mondays and Tuesdays, running to roughly 6.30pm.
