It was a pleasure to receive a phone call in November from Ashley Nock, the Manager of our local Commonwealth Bank Branch, to advise me that the team at CBA Karratha had chosen Reach Us Pilbara to be the recipients of a $500 donation thanks to the Commonwealth Bank Community Donation Program.
“With the festive season approaching, it’s a timely opportunity for us to show our support for REACH US Pilbara,” said Ashley Nock, Commonwealth Bank Karratha Branch Manager.
“In particular, we’re pleased to assist an organisation that provides invaluable support to local people who are receiving treatment for cancer. It’s great to be able to give back and support this work.”
As a charity who relies wholly on fundraising and donations to provide ancillary support services to local cancer patients every bit truly does count. $500 can provide 5 weeks of cleaning or three counselling sessions for example. Big thanks to Ashley and the team of lovely ladies at Commonwealth Karratha- we are truly grateful xxx
