Spreading Blessings And Hope

In the past three months, 224 individuals have accessed Chances House for meals, healthcare and essential support.

As a crucial resource for those experiencing homelessness in Mackay, Chances House provides fresh meals and takeaway packs for weekends, ensuring those in need have access to food.

However, without the community's support, the organisation wouldn't be able to make such a meaningful difference in assisting the vulnerable.

As part of Anti-Poverty Week, Mackay Christian Family Church (MCF) recently donated 10 hampers for homeless individuals and families facing hardship. The team from Act for Kids played an essential role in delivering the much-needed hampers.

Chances House extends its gratitude to everyone involved in these contributions, recognising that together, they are making a meaningful difference in the lives of many.

A spokesperson from Chances House said “We’re proud to be a vital resource for people experiencing homelessness in Mackay, providing fresh meals and take-away packs for the weekends.

“Thank you to everyone who supports our work - you’re helping make a real difference.”
