Mackay View Club Thanks Officeworks

Recently, members of Mackay VIEW Club visited Mackay Officeworks to thank them for their ongoing support of The Smith Family’s Back to School Appeal.

Members Elizabeth, Linnea, and Toni-Lee met with Scott, Store Business Manager, who welcomed the visit and shared insights on the Mackay Officeworks Staff experiences with the campaign.

The Back-to-School Appeal supports The Smith Family’s Learning for Life program, which assists students across Australia who are experiencing disadvantage when accessing education and educational requirements. The 2026 campaign aims to raise $1 million to sponsor 1,436 students this year. Since the Officeworks Back to School Appeal began 13 years ago, Officeworks have raised more than $10 m, which has supported the education of more than 15,000 students on The Smith Family’s core Learning for Life scholarship program for an entire year.

Anyone interested in finding out more about Mackay VIEW Club, which is proud to be one of The Smith Family’s largest community sponsors of disadvantaged Australian children on The Learning for Life program, please contact President Elizabeth on 0438 715 731 or find them on Facebook via VIEW Club-Mackay, Queensland.

Mackay VIEW Club meets on the third Wednesday of every month at The Mackay Surf Club. The first Luncheon will be on February 18,2026 where attendees will meet for fun and friendship while raising money to support our current 5 Learning for Life students.
