East Kimberley Flood Relief
We are grateful for your support to assist struggling Aboriginal people in the East Kimberley throughout the extremely challenging period early this year.
Your grant funding assisted 167 Aboriginal families within the Kununurra region.
We believe this grant has allowed us to make significant progress towards achieving our mission to feed vulnerable community members.
Due to flooding and damage to major highways/roads and freight cost hiked up, cost of food has increased drastically.
MG Corporation provided $300 Coles Gift Cards to 167 Aboriginal people to purchase fresh produce at Coles Supermarket in Kununurra.
167 households were able to purchase essential products to feed extended families members, young children, teenagers, mothers, fathers and elderly who had not been able to buy fresh produce throughout the months of late January, February and early March.
