Community Support
We encourage our team to get involved in the local community. Here are some of the initiatives we currently do and have done in the past.
- Kids Xpress – we have been proud sponsors of ‘A Touch of Colour’ since 2018. Created by GSA Insurance Brokers, this event in Sydney raises money for Kids Express; a children’s mental health charity that helps transform the lives of children impacted by adversity.
- OzHarvest; Cooking For A Cause – our team helped transform rescued ingredients into gourmet meals to support vulnerable communities.
- Australian Red Cross Lifeblood – the team are able to donate blood on company time.
- Good In The Hood – we donated a pre-paid function room at The Fullerton Hotel to Good In The Hood and their charity partners and volunteers. Good in the Hood are a Sydney-based volunteer organisation who provide meals to residents who are doing it tough, plus provide community-focused programs and events that drive inclusion and tackle loneliness.
- Dress for Success – helping in the warehouse and showroom.
