Global Care Set Up Donation Hub

Global Care Australia is the charity arm of International Network of Churches, and recently they have set up base in Life Church Ingham, with various donations ready to give out to people in the community that are in need.

They opened on Monday and will remain open throughout the week, until their donations are finished.

National Coordinator Andy Backhouse said there are food items, frozen meals, pre-packed meals, clothing, sheets, towels, hygiene kits and more.

“At Global Care, we do disaster response and recovery all around Australia, but to see the community from North Queensland and all through Queensland come together as they have to support the Hinchinbrook community and the Cassowary Coast community has been phenomenal,” he said.

“There's a lot of people being blessed by a lot of generous individuals and organisations and charities.”

As well as the donations, Global Care are providing people with cleanups, from home mud outs, pressure washing and curb side rubbish removal.

Life Church Ingham at 28/32 Townsville Road will be open all week from 10am – 2pm for people in need to stock up on essentials and Andy said they are always looking for volunteers too, to volunteer you can contact Life Church.
