At Wanless Waste Management, community care extends beyond environmental sustainability. Over the past year, Wanless’s philanthropic efforts have demonstrated its commitment to making a positive impact. From supporting families in need to bringing joy to children and raising funds for vital causes, the team at Wanless has shown that giving back is an integral part of their values.
Ronald McDonald House: Covering 33 Nights for Families
The Ronald McDonald House Charities provides vital support to families with seriously ill children by offering accommodation close to hospitals. This invaluable service allows families to stay together during challenging times, alleviating some of the financial and emotional burdens. This year, Wanless Waste Management covered the cost of 33 nights for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House. By easing this critical expense, Wanless helped ensure these families could focus on what truly matters – their child’s recovery.
Movember: Raising Awareness and Funds for Men’s Health
This past November, the Wanless team joined the men’s health Movember cause by growing moustaches and organising fundraising activities. Their efforts raised $1,610, contributing to lifesaving research and programs that improve men’s health outcomes, in the fields of prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health challenges. The campaign not only brought the team together but also sparked important conversations about men’s health.
Barnados: Sharing Joy During the Festive Season
Barnardos Australia brightens the lives of seriously ill children by granting wishes and providing entertainment in hospitals. Wanless Waste Management’s Sydney team embraced the spirit of giving by bringing along presents to the company Christmas party, all of which were donated to Barnardos. These gifts helped spread festive cheer to children facing tough circumstances, making their holiday season a little brighter.
March On with Soldier On: Supporting Veterans and Their Families
March On Challenge is an initiative that supports Australian veterans and their families, providing them with mental health and wellbeing services. This year, Wanless raised $520 to assist this noble cause. The funds contributed to programs that empower veterans to thrive post-service, ensuring they have access to the care and support they need.
Wanless’s philanthropic efforts this year are a testament to their commitment to community welfare. By supporting diverse causes, they have made a meaningful difference in the lives of families, children, and veterans. Contact us today to find out more.
