Big Group Hug
Dylan WIGHT (Tarneit) (10:14): Recently I had the pleasure of visiting Big Group Hug in my electorate of Tarneit. I met with some wonderful staff and volunteers, including CEO Bernadene Voss and relationship development coordinator Sonal Dang. It was wonderful to chat with you both. Your passion for the work that you do is truly admirable.
This year Big Group Hug is celebrating 10 years of community work. Their work has supported families in their most difficult times by distributing more than 570,000 items right across Victoria. By partnering with health and welfare professionals Big Group Hug has been helping families cover the costs of their kids’ basic needs, with everything from toys to nappies, highchairs and even clothing for older kids. I want to say a huge thankyou to the entire team at Big Group Hug. Your work has been making a positive difference in the lives of families across the state.
Thank you to everyone who has donated to Big Group Hug over their 10 years of service. Your donations fuel the work Big Group Hug can do, and if you are able to donate, I highly encourage you to get in contact with them. It was absolutely amazing to be at Big Group Hug’s facilities in Tarneit and to see all the fantastic work that the volunteers in my electorate have been doing over the past couple of years.
