The spirit of giving is alive in Mackay this Christmas, with the community coming together to support those in need.
Mackay Christian College’s Care Ambassadors led a heartfelt food drive, collecting over 50 bags and baskets of essentials to feed the homeless and help families facing hardship. With support from Mackay Christian Family Church, the initiative showcased the true meaning of Christmas.
Adding to this generosity, Fiona from Coffee and Hops Photography is donating profits from her 2025 Animal Lovers Calendar to Chances House. A renowned pet photographer, Fiona’s calendar features stunning images of beloved pets from 2024 and is a perfect gift that gives back. Order your copy at coffeeandhops.com/shop/p/2025calendar.
These are just two of the many efforts by Mackay’s community to support people experiencing homelessness. Together, these acts of kindness reflect a shared commitment to making a difference this festive season.
