Joeys Kangaroo Point has been recognised as Mater Foundation's September Community Hero for their ongoing support of Mater Little Miracles. Through community fundraising events and local initiatives, the team has helped raise vital funds to support babies and families receiving life-saving care at Mater.
For the team at Joeys, being part of the community means more than creating a place for people to come together. It means supporting local families through life's challenges and giving back to causes that make a real difference.
Over the past two years, Joeys has proudly supported Mater Little Miracles, inspired by the care, support and hope the program provides to babies and their families during some of their most difficult moments. The team's commitment to helping Queensland families has seen them develop their community gatherings into impactful events that raise awareness and vital funds to support this work.
Through initiatives including the Joey's Ekka Fun Fair, held for two consecutive years, and the Christmas Fun Fair, Joeys has brought together staff, patrons and the wider community to raise funds in support of Mater Little Miracles. Their efforts demonstrate the power of community connection and the impact that can be achieved when people come together for a shared purpose.
The Joeys team says they are continually inspired by the strength of the families receiving care and the healthcare professionals who support them every day. Their fundraising journey is driven by a simple belief: that even small acts of generosity can help make a meaningful difference. By rallying their community around Mater Little Miracles, they are helping provide care, support and hope to Queensland babies and families.
Mater Foundation Community Hero recognises and celebrates the inspiring contributions of our volunteers, fundraisers and advocates.
