For nearly 50 years, the Mackay Scope Club has brought together women dedicated to fundraising for local causes. Meeting monthly at Breezes Retirement Village, the club’s efforts benefit various charities through sausage sizzles, raffles, and even Christmas gift-wrapping.
Ms Brenda Travaskis has been a member for almost a year now and thoroughly enjoys her time fundraising for those in need.
“We hold sausage sizzles, wrap Christmas presents outside Spotlight for donations, and organise Mother’s Day raffles,” she says.
“All the funds go towards supporting a variety of organisations within our community.”
Most recently, the club contributed their hard-earned funds to MARS Wildlife Rescue, a volunteer-run organisation dedicated to rehabilitating injured animals.
Mackay will soon host the National SCOPE Club Conference in June, bringing together members from across Queensland to expand their community impact.
Brenda encourages others to join and said “It’s a great way to meet people while giving back to the community.”
The Scope Club’s work has created lasting benefits for the region, fostering unity and positive change while supporting vital initiatives like MARS Wildlife Rescue and Care Kitchen.
