Connecting communities - Delivering to those in need

Philanthropy Australia Podcast

Hundreds of rural and regional communities across Australia felt the impact of the pandemic this year. Few though could call on their local community foundations to provide the kind of support that helped Shepparton weather the grim consequences of COVID-19. In in our final podcast for 2020, we hear how the Greater Shepparton Foundation and the Fairley Foundation responded with speed and compassion to help their town become a powerful example of how to survive the pandemic, even as the virus was circulating. Hear from those who worked to deliver the meals and the health advice that sustained a diverse community in its most difficult moment. It’s a feel-good story, at the right time of year.
