The Wiseberry Foundation has launched its 2023 Winter Appeal and is calling on the Central Coast community to get behind the campaign.
This year, Wiseberry Peninsula is supporting Mary Mac’s Place in Woy Woy and is asking for donations of non-perishable food items and warm winter clothing.
Member for Robertson Gordon Reid is supporting the appeal for the second year in a row.
“Last year was such a massive success, and the community really got on board,” Reid said.
“Wiseberry Peninsula is hoping this year is even bigger, and with the support of the community, we can achieve this.
“We all know how important Mary Mac’s Place is and how amazing its volunteers are.
“I encourage the community to give generously.”
Wiseberry Peninsula Property Manager, Tammy Jackett, said this year people are doing it extra tough and need the support more than ever.
“With the cost of living really taking a bite, and more people than ever accessing support services, we need people to give generously,” she said.
“Mary Mac’s Place (does) a phenomenal job feeding people who are homeless or caring for people escaping difficult circumstances.
“There is need in the community, and we’re calling on people to donate, if they can.”
To donate, people can visit Wiseberry Peninsula at Umina Beach or Reid’s office at West Gosford.
The 2023 Winter Appeal will run for the entire month of June.
Wiseberry Peninsula is located at 264 West St, Umina Beach.
Reid’s office is located at Riverside Building, Level 3/69 Central Coast Hwy, West Gosford.
