A Day of Giving Back with Big Group Hug
Some of our incredible Oliver Hume team members had the humbling opportunity to volunteer with Big Group Hug. This remarkable organisation does vital work, providing essential items like clothing, toys, and baby supplies to families in need.
Despite the chilly weather, our team - Julian Coppini, Harvey Carretero, Ashley Duster, Mitchy Koper, Natalie Belevski, Aleksandra Czajkowski, Jodi Cartwright - Dyer, and Carmen Prosenik – all rolled up their sleeves with enthusiasm! They spent the day cleaning, sorting, and preparing items for distribution, including generous donations from our recent Winter Warmers Campaign. From cosy blankets to prams and car seats, every item was carefully packed to meet the unique needs of each family.
“What made the day truly humbling was hearing from one of their team members who shared her personal journey. It was a powerful reminder of how acts of kindness ripple forward” - Jodi Cartwright - Dyer
“It takes a small army of dedicated volunteers to pull together the abundance of much-needed help for so many people experiencing dire circumstances. It was such an honour to be with the HUGS regular volunteer workforce today. We enjoyed meeting some of the team & sharing stories & laughs." - Mitchy Koper
