WELCOME TO COMMUNITIES FOR COMMUNITIES!
Communities for Communities is built on four pillars:
We build, experience and celebrate our community.
We reach out and help other communities to meet their needs.
We raise awareness and understanding of the needs of others.
We challenge and encourage other communities to set up their own Communities for Communities model.
With the support of the people of Canada Bay, we've hosted dozens of community events and raised more than half a million dollars. This has built houses, schools, and communities facilities in disadvantaged communities overseas in Thailand, the Philippines and South Vietnam, and funded additional paediatric physiotherapy hours in Lucas Gardens School in Five Dock.
Those who've become involved with Communities for Communities have enjoyed the richness and sense of connectedness of helping other communities. As Founder and President Lance Brooks says, "The proceeds of our work go beyond our community but the benefit stays here."
We look for support through:
Attendance at our events
Sponsorship
Voluntary help with organizing and running our events
Donations and bequests.
It's a great organisation to be part of, and we're always looking for more supporters! You can join our newsletter mailing list (at left) to find out more about recent and upcoming events, or click here to make contact with us if you'd like to get involved with helping out. You can download a more detailed brochure here.
We're also keen to help other communities to get their own 'Communities for Communities' organisation off the ground. If you'd like to know more, click here.
