Calling for Donations – Floods 2013
The recent natural disasters in our great state have once again tested us and I understand that some residents are still experiencing the effects of the Australia Day Weekend storms. I encourage you to contact my Office if you are in need of assistance.
The Bonner electorate banded together in the floods of 2011 to help those out in need, not only through the “mud army”, but the generous donations that were delivered to my Office on a daily basis.
Our fellow Queenslanders again need us and I’m calling for your support as we collect donations for those in Bundaberg affected by the recent floods.
Brand new items such as toiletries, clothes, kitchen appliances, toys, school stuff and baby items can be dropped off to my Electorate Office:
69 Clara Street
Wynnum, QLD 4178
Or call 07 3893 3488
8:30am – 5:00pm (Monday to Friday)
These items will be collected and delivered to Bundaberg residents, who are so desperately in need.
