The community came together in force this year to support the Crossroad Arts’ Annual Giving Program, smashing this year’s target of $17,500 out of the park.
The final tally included a generous $5,000 donation of matched funds from Golding as the 2024 Crossroad Arts Community Champion, Golding generously matched community donations $1 for $1 up to $5,000.
Last week the Crossroad Arts team and Ambassador Georgia Knoll visited a local Golding civil engineering infrastructure project for a behind the scenes site tour and to celebrate the success of this year’s Annual Giving Program raising a whopping $27,205, well above this year’s target.
This figure was made possible with thanks to the donations from numerous local businesses and individuals, many returning to support the Annual Giving program year after year.
Martin Brears, Lead Civil Engineer for Golding, shared the reasoning behind Golding’s decision to partner with Crossroad Arts as a community champion for 2024 Annual Giving Program.
Martin explained, “Golding as an organisation has always looked to support smaller regional charities and sporting groups in the communities where we work. A great opportunity to support a local organisation giving so much back to the community”
Golding Community Liaison Mark Cornelissen went on to discuss how they became connected with Crossroad Arts and the appeal of supporting this Mackay-based organisation.
Mark said, “We heard through the community about Crossroad Arts and just thought about what a great opportunity it would be to do something related to Regional Queensland.”
Golding delivers civil infrastructure, urban and mining services on the East Coast of Australia. Over the past 75 years, ongoing success has allowed Golding to expand its capabilities into New South Wales.
Crossroad Arts are dedicated to creating outstanding inclusive art experiences for all people to build stronger communities. Funds raised from the Annual Giving Program go directly to supporting local artists and programs. If you share their passion for inclusivity in your community you are invited to help them achieve their vision of Arts for All.
