Two new faces have joined the Mackay Hospital Foundation’s team, and the pair are both diving straight into their roles with four of their biggest events due to be held in the next two months.
The foundation is a non-for-profit organisation that is set-up to raise money to fund equipment and projects which have not been included within the Queensland Health budget.
The fundraising arm for the broader Mackay Hospital and Health Service, the foundation plays an integral part in providing facilities for the best possible health results for residents across the region.
Kristi Algate has taken on the role of General Manager, bringing with her five years working in care management.
The new GM said it was a pleasure meeting some of the people working within various units at Mackay Base Hospital and that she is looking forward to visiting the rural hospitals.
“It’s also been wonderful to meet with a number of our corporate supporters, but it may take a little longer to get around to personally meet with all of our major donors and sponsors,” she said.
Brenda McFadzen is the other new face on the team at Mackay Hospital Foundation, taking on the role of Community Engagement Officer.
Instrumental in organising major events including galas, charity golf days and a host of other fundraising activities for various charities, Brenda will no doubt thrive in her new workplace.
Brenda says she is looking forward to events on the calendar such as the Cinema Under the Stars by Harvey Norman Bedding and the Christmas Gift Wrapping at Mt P and Myer.
