I have watched the flood situation unfold in Queensland, and have been completely powerless until now. I am not sure of your personal situation, but I do hope you are safe.
I, in conjunction with the President of the Northlakes Rotary Club have set up a collection and distribution point for people to drop off clothes, towels, bedding, toys, furniture, non perishable foodstuffs, and personal sanitary items (bathroom stuff) as well as baby formula etc.
A lot of people at this time of year do a bit of de-cluttering, and this year there is even more reason to do this and to help our neighbours, fellow Queenslanders in their darkest hour.
I have secured an Industrial Shed at Unit 2, 11-15 Baylink Ave, Deception Bay (take Boundary road exit of highway), Bright green building. This building will be manned between 9-5 from Friday 14th January to take your donations. I anticipate being open there for at least 2 weeks and we have full use of the shed for a month if needed.
PLEASE MAKE SURE DONATIONS ARE CLEAN DRY AND USEABLE ITEMS.
PLEASE BAG AND TAG SHEET SETS BEFORE YOU BRING THEM IN
THAT WILL BE A HUGE HELP AND SAVE US LOTS OF TIME.
DO NOT SEAL BAGS – WE STILL HAVE TO BOX ITEMS TO SEND THEM OUT.
I thank you in advance for your assistance and help for our mates, neighbours, colleagues, friends and family.
Take care and be safe.
The Shed will be open from 9am Friday 14th January 2011
PLEASE DO NOT DUMP ITEMS OUTSIDE THE SHED – THIS WILL NOT HELP ANYONE.
