Ettalong Diggers collected almost 100kg of essential items during its Escabags Donation Drive in July.
The club’s Community & Tourism Manager Kim Cole said the community’s generosity saw a record-breaking 92.82kg of items donated – 20kg more than during the previous drive.
The donations will directly assist individuals and families escaping domestic and family violence, providing them with vital essentials during a time of crisis.
“The response from our members, guests, and the wider community has been nothing short of extraordinary,” Cole said.
“Every single donation represents a lifeline for someone in need, and we are so proud to work alongside Escabags to make a tangible difference.”
Escabags Ltd is an Australian registered charity founded by domestic violence survivor Stacy Jane, providing free, discreet Escape Bags filled with toiletries, personal care products, and comfort items for both adults and children.
The charity partners with over 2,000 stockists across Australia, making these essential bags accessible in times of urgent need.
Ettalong Diggers remains committed to supporting important community initiatives that promote safety, dignity, and hope.
