โSince 2017, we have aimed to distribute as much as possible of our office operating budget back into the community instead of on advertising or self-promotion materials. In previous years, these funds through various programs have assisted our young Noosans access sports, major initiatives such as the all-abilities mat at Noosa Main Beach, provided emergency accommodations and the โBe: Noosa Connect-SCUH Transport Pilotโ which resulted in transport for vulnerable residents to hospital treatments.
