Local organisations and community members rallied together in Mackay this week to make a meaningful impact during Anti-Poverty Week. The Neighbourhood Hub Mackay expressed its heartfelt appreciation for the support received throughout the campaign.
“We would like to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for today's Anti-Poverty Week Campaign and to the Mackay Region Chamber of Commerce for their unwavering support. To CASA - Community Accommodation & Support Agency Inc. for lending us your team members to assist in sorting donations,” the Hub said.
Generous contributions of non-perishable food items from a wide range of organisations ensured that families and individuals in need would receive essential support.
“A massive thank you to every organisation that generously donated non-perishable food items to the campaign. Your contributions are making a real difference in the lives of those in need,” organisers said.
The campaign also served as a reminder of the strength of community spirit.
“Together, we’re proving that when a community comes together, incredible things happen. Let’s continue to fight against poverty and build a brighter future for everyone.”
With the combined efforts of volunteers, businesses, and supporters, Mackay has shown that collaboration and compassion can create real, positive change in our region.
