Karen Warner is a shining example of resilience having recently overcome a period of immense hardship. A few months ago, Karen faced the terrifying prospect of homelessness, unsure where she would sleep, whether it would be in her car or seeking shelter in public restrooms. However, thanks to the incredible support from Whitsunday Housing in Airlie Beach, her life took a turn for the better.
Karen shared her heartfelt thanks, saying, “I'd like to extend my gratitude to the wonderful staff at Whitsunday Housing for their support. A few months ago, I faced the prospect of homelessness (...) This period has been extremely difficult. However, the staff have been instrumental in helping me, much like guardian angels. I wouldn't be writing this today if it weren't for them. Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart, beautiful people.”
Looking to the future, Karen is eager to give back to the community that helped her. She said, “I'm looking forward to getting settled and back on track so I can give back to the community, whether it's through donating items or other means.”
Debbie Stephens, another recipient of support from the same team, echoed Karen’s sentiments, stating, “I am so pleased that you have shelter! They provided the same for me during a period of significant upheaval in my life and are truly the kindest and most compassionate individuals.”
To the team at Whitsunday Housing for helping Karen and those struggling like her, to build their lives back together through the necessity of safe housing, thank you for all your hard work and charity.
