We were thrilled to be contacted by Best and Less saying they would like to do a nationwide drive for us. For every 3 bras purchased, we would receive one bra and we were also financially supported.
The net result was we were the recipients of over $30 000 dollars and 30 000 bras. The impact of this donation for us was enormous.
One of the most important factors in being able to do what we do to empower and support women is getting access to luxury items. Razor blades are very much a luxury item along with sanitary products. Women are always asking if we have them.
Due to safety issues, it is not something we pack into our care packs, but the women we support know if we have stock we can assist them.
To receive this incredibly generous donation from BIC is just incredible and will bring a lot of smiles to the women we help.
For the first few years of running the charity our operations were out of our CEO’s home. As the charity grew and become known the overwhelming amount of donations meant that we had to move into a storage unit. Being a grass roots charity that is not supported by government this was always going to be a stress factor. We approached numerous storage companies and Storage King Southport came to our rescue.
They supported us with an incredible discount in their brand new start of the art storage facility. We took a small unit, and then graduated to a 40 sqm unit and then literally a week prior to Covid hitting us we moved into a 100sqm unit.
August saw our fabulous Western Sydney team move into their unit at Storage King Penrith.
TFH Hire are a complete Hire Solution company that specialises in worksite, Events, Festivals and more. We were incredibly grateful for their amazing donation of water at our Christmas Bra Fitting Event.
This made a huge difference as it was an incredibly hot day and the weather was a typically barmy hot Gold Coast day so it was consumed with much need.
We were absolutely delighted to be the recipients of literally thousands of bras and new underwear from Slimform in Victoria. Slimform is a company that has been operating for many years and their incredible donation of lingerie enables us to empower so many more women with respect and dignity.
