Caneland Central has been asking you to put a few extra items in your shopping trolley to donate to the Caneland Central Donation Hub for Anti-Poverty Week this week.
Running from October 16 to 22, Anti-Poverty Week are celebrating their 20th year of acting on poverty and making sure that all Australian children and families can cover the basics and have a secure roof over their head.
Caneland Central is asking for donations of non-perishable food items or fresh produce vouchers to be donated to The Neighbourhood Hub Mackay to support families in need in the community.
In Australia, one in six children live in poverty.
Anti-Poverty Week supports the Australian community to have an increased understanding of poverty and to take action collectively to end it.
The key message is “Poverty exists. Poverty hurts us all. We can all do something about it. It is one of hope, not despair.”
Since 2002, Anti-Poverty Week has been active every year in the week around October 17, the United Nations Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
During this week, all Australians are encouraged to take action and focus on positive solutions to end poverty.
The Donation Hub is located at the Customer Service Desk and is one way that Caneland Central supports its local community by providing an easy and convenient drop-off point while people are doing their shopping.
The Donation Hub is offered to various charities and causes throughout the community on a regular basis.
