When two local organisations dedicated to helping others join forces, something truly special happens. We're thrilled to share that Hervey Bay Disability Assistance Inc and their Treasure Trove Op Shop have become monthly supporters of Fraser Coast Hospice, strengthening the web of care that makes our community so remarkable.
This partnership feels particularly meaningful because it represents exactly what we value most: organisations working together to ensure no one in our community faces their challenges alone.
A Shared Mission of Service
Hervey Bay Disability Assistance Inc has been a cornerstone of support in our community for more than three decades. Based in Urangan, this not-for-profit charity has dedicated itself to making life better for local residents who need mobility equipment and other essential disability aids.
What makes their work even more impressive is that they achieve all of this through the tireless efforts of volunteers and the generosity of community members who donate and shop at their op shop. The Treasure Trove on Elizabeth Street has become more than just a place to find a bargain. It's a hub where community kindness transforms into practical help for those who need it most.
Why This Matters to Us
At Fraser Coast Hospice, we understand the profound difference that community support makes. We see it every day in the faces of families who find relief knowing their loved ones are being cared for with dignity and compassion. We see it in the dedication of our staff and volunteers and in the ongoing commitment of our Heroes of Hospice.
When organisations like Hervey Bay Disability Assistance Inc choose to support our work through regular monthly donations, they're helping us maintain the fee-free care that makes our hospice accessible to everyone who needs it. This consistency means we can plan ahead, ensure our supplies are always stocked, and continue providing the home-cooked meals, comfortable surroundings, and specialist care that make such a difference in those final days and weeks.
Building Something Greater Together
There's something beautifully fitting about this partnership. Both our organisations exist to serve vulnerable members of our community. Both rely on the generosity of volunteers and supporters. And both understand that equipment, facilities, and funding matter most when they translate into genuine care and improved quality of life for real people.
To everyone involved with Hervey Bay Disability Assistance Inc and the Treasure Trove Op Shop, thank you. Your support helps us continue our mission of ensuring every adult in our community has access to dignified palliative care. Together, we're proving that when communities care, extraordinary things become possible.
Support a Good Cause While You Shop
Next time you're looking for a treasure or have items to donate, pop into the Treasure Trove Op Shop at 88 Elizabeth Street, Urangan. Every purchase and donation helps support both disability services and Fraser Coast Hospice. It's a wonderful way to give back to your community while finding something special.
