hit99.5 Sunraysia Blanket Drive for Homelessness Week

Sunraysia’s hit99.5 teamed up with local organisation Mallee Accommodation and Support Program (MASP) to raise awareness for people experiencing homelessness in Sunraysia.

Amy & Dave ran a blanket drive asking listeners to donate new or preloved blankets and sleeping bags for residents experiencing homelessness and many dug deep, including 9-year-old listener Rubie who donated 25 new sleeping bags when she heard the campaign on air.

When asked why she organised the items to be donated she said she wanted to do her part to help people less fortunate than herself.

Content Director Luke Toohey commented on the initiative saying, “It was a great campaign by the team, and it is so good to see them making a meaningful difference!”
