A heartfelt thank you to Katharine Sleeman for her generous contribution towards our Drive to Connect program.

For many migrant women, obtaining a driver's licence is about much more than learning to drive. It means greater independence, access to employment and education, the ability to support their families, and stronger connections to the community they now call home.

We are incredibly grateful to Katharine for recognising the importance of this program and to Border Trust for helping make this valuable connection possible.

Together, we are helping women build skills, confidence, and stronger connections within our community. 💙

Today, we came together at Albury Wodonga Volunteer Resource Bureau to celebrate and farewell two wonderful members of our team, Diana Elliot; our multicultural team leader and Maureen Heron; our senior multicultural case worker.

It was truly heartwarming to see so many people join us, including members from our multicultural communities, representatives from partner organisations, and our Board of Directors, all coming together to recognise their contributions and wish them well.

Diana and Maureen have each made a meaningful impact through their dedication, kindness, and commitment to the community. Their presence will be deeply missed.

We wrapped up the celebration on a joyful note with singing, dancing, and plenty of laughter, a perfect reflection of the positive spirit they brought to our organisation.

Wishing you both all the very best for your next chapter. Thank you for everything 💙
