Woodbine Inc. is a not-for-profit organisation providing accommodation, day placement, supported employment, respite and recreational services to people with disabilities who reside in country Victoria and the South East region of South Australia.
The organisation is also establishing a much needed accommodation facility in Echuca for people with disabilities, however, lack of funds is preventing the acquisition of land and the construction of suitable premises.
How will these funds be used?
The Echuca service is currently unfunded by government bodies and therefore, is reliant on the support of individuals, businesses and philanthropic trusts. Funds are required for;
- The acquisition of suitable property
- The construction of a suitable premises
- Purchase of equipment to ensure the safety and comfort of residents and staff.
Woodbine's vision is to continue to provide excellent services to people with disabilities in the Wimmera/Mallee region and expand its services by identifying and meeting needs in new areas, working in partnership with other organisations where appropriate.
Key Areas of Expenditure
Purchase of equipment to improve the quality services already provided to people with disabilities.
Development of programs for people who don't have access to services.
