Many people elect to use the beginning of a new calendar year to take stock of their lives, set new goals or simply change habits.
MASP is encouraging the community to think about contributing to one of the organisation’s four unique donation funds as their New Year’s resolution.
To outline the four funds:
- Homelessness Support – Your donations will provide material aid for essential supplies like bedding, emergency accommodations, and food support.
- Youth Support – With this fund, we provide material aid, mentoring program support, and other necessary assistance for youth clients.
- Family Safety – Your donation will be used to fund preventive programs and offer material aid to those not eligible for government-funded support.
- Housing Development – Your contribution supports activities like land acquisition, housing construction and renovations.
“These funds were created so community members can ensure their donations directly impact the causes they care about most,” MASP CEO Charmaine Calis said. “It is a great way to help MASP make a difference and we appreciate the generosity of those who donate or support the organisation in any way, shape or form. Your donations allow us to provide greater services and support across the Mallee and Far West NSW.”
MASP also occasionally runs special fundraisers for specific needs or based on specific causes, such as September’s Lunch For Change. Donations can be made online through the donation portal on MASP’s website, by calling and speaking with MASP staff or by posting a cheque addressed to the MASP Chief Executive Officer at PO Box 1686, Mildura, Victoria 3502.
Contributions over $2 are also tax deductible and receipts can be supplied on request. For more information or to donate, go to https://masp.org.au/get-involved/donate-and-fundraise-for-masp/
