Community generosity
We have found that over the drought and Covid-19 people have been most generous, with a donation of barley from Warren Saunders Insurance brokers, from which several farmers in the area benefited. "Let it rain" Give it gave eight families gift cards of $250 each.
Essential Energy have also given our branch a discount for which we are most grateful. As there has been no fundraising this year, we really appreciate their generosity.
And just this week a lady from Wollongong called in and donated four beautiful quits for us to use as a fundraiser. She had heard that you can get really good coffee in Eugowra.
