A generous donation to the Neighbourhood Hub was more than enough for Brent Stephenson to be nominated for this week’s Good Deed Feed, but this generous local with a passion for fishing went one step further just before Christmas.
Through his fishing apparel brand, Mudskippa, members of Mackay’s fishing community donated their second-hand fishing gear as part of Mudskippa’s ‘Combos4Kids Mackay’ initiative.
A range of gear was donated to the Neighbourhood Hub to give less fortunate children the opportunity to go fishing.
On top of this initiative, Brent donated a fishing charter and Tackle World gift vouchers to those in need.
He had been donated a full-day fishing charter for two people, which he wanted to gift as a Christmas present to someone who was genuinely struggling. He also purchased four Tackle World gift cards to give to four more people who may need a Christmas gift for their child.
His generosity was posted on the Mackay Noticeboard on Facebook on Christmas Eve, a kind gesture which no doubt made Christmas a little brighter for in-need Mackay families.
If you’re passionate about fishing, Mudskippa is more than a brand, it’s a community. Check it out at mudskippa.com.au.
