Chances Op Shop have turned to Facebook to thank some recent donors, including Councillor Martin Bella who orchestrated the donation of a whole beast.
“Cr. Marty Bella came to us a few weeks ago with an idea,” the Facebook post read.
“He wanted to purchase a beast for us through generous donations from people he knew, most of whom were farmers or in the agriculture industry.”
“We are so grateful to all of the people involved in making this possible.
“Meat is one of our largest costs and this donation will go a long, long way.”
Chances Op Shop have also recently shared their gratitude to Country Women's Association Mackay for their donation of $200, Member for Mackay Julieanne Gilbert who donated 15 pizzas for a State of Origin night, and the ladies at Scope Mackay for their donation of lightweight swags.
The op shop serves as a fundraising initiative of Australian Street Aid Project, utilising the funding from the op shop to provide essential homelessness services.
Offering a daily breakfast and lunch service, homelessness healthcare, a drop-in lounge, essential items and more, Australian Street Aid Project aims to promote dignity and positive social interactions in an inclusive and welcoming environment which enables people to exit the cycle of homelessness and increases their chances of leading a fulfilling life following their homelessness experience.
