A huge Thankyou to our ambassador Nicky Charman for running a donation drive for our Cuddle Cases Program. The amazing Calexico community pulled together to provide toiletries, teddy bears, sanitary items and other comfort and essential items for our Cuddle Cases program to support children entering care in Queensland. These items will provide some support to children at a traumatic time and let them know someone cares.
Join our community and be the first to receive updates on our latest news, upcoming events, and impactful stories. Stay informed about how we’re making a difference in the lives of children in need and learn how you can get involved.
