The way our community comes together to support vulnerable families during the festive season truly overwhelms us at WCS. 💖

📦🎁 Boxes of Joy from Bowen CBA! 🎄

Our Bowen office was thrilled to unpack cartons filled with generosity from the amazing Bowen branch of CBA – toys, books, handmade blankets, and toiletries!

With Christmas just around the corner, these boxes of kindness are a timely delivery and will bring smiles and comfort to families in need. 💖

Our team has been devastated watching the terror attacks unfold in Bondi on Sunday, and by the tragic loss of life and harm caused. Our hearts are with the victims, survivors, families, communities, and everyone impacted by this horrific act.

We know that the impact of such events is felt far beyond one location. The ripples from this tragedy have been carried interstate and internationally and will remain for some time. For many people—particularly those with lived experience of violence—this tragedy may resurface fear, grief, or trauma.

We want to acknowledge the profound impact events like these can have, and to remind everyone that support is available. No one should carry this weight alone. Please reach out if you, or someone you care about, would like support.

🌸🌼💐 Our beautiful families were lucky to receive these gifts after a shopping spree in Bowen yesterday thanks to the Hamilton Island Whine Club’s generous donation of $500. Liz and Nuria from the Whine Club reached out with their big-hearted donation and we couldn’t think of a better way to pay it forward than to spoil the ladies that we care for 🌸🌼💐

🎁 The gifts just keep coming at WCS! 🎁

Yesterday, we received an actual CARLOAD of presents for families in Supported Accommodation, generously delivered by Proserpine State High staff member Scott, pictured below with only a small sample of what we received. 🚛

The students, guided by their teacher Mr. O’Keefe, went above and beyond—handcrafting beautiful toy trucks for our families. And they didn’t stop there! Students and families of PSHS also donated and filled numerous gift bags with age-appropriate toys for both boys and girls. 🧸

These incredible gifts will bring so much joy to our Supported Accommodation families this festive season. 💚

A huge thank you to Proserpine State High School, Scott, Mr. O’Keefe, and all the students and families who made this possible. Your kindness and creativity are truly inspiring!

🌟 Another Day, Another Act of Kindness! We truly live in the most generous and giving community! 🌟

Today, our amazing local Lions Club chose to spread Christmas cheer in the most heartfelt way. Rather than celebrating their usual Secret Santa, the Lion’s Club members instead donated 17 gift cards and a delicious Lion’s Christmas Cake to WCS – helping families in Supported Accommodation celebrate the joy of the season. 🎄✨

A special shout-out to Sue and Sue for personally delivering the cake and brightening our morning tea! 🫶

Your kindness reminds us what community spirit is all about. Thank you for making this Christmas extra special! 💛

🎄✨ Another Christmas Haul for Our Families in Supported Accommodation! ✨🎄

We are feeling so blessed this festive season! A huge thank you to YWAM for their incredible generosity – today we’ve received 9 Christmas bags filled with goodies for our families.

Special thanks to Leah and Johannes for making this possible. Your kindness and support mean the world to us and to the families WCS care for. 💖

Together, we’re spreading joy and making this Christmas extra special! 🌟

🎄✨ Community Spirit in Action! ✨🎄

Whitsunday Counselling & Support Inc was thrilled to join the free Christmas community event hosted by Bunnings last night, bringing festive cheer to families in our region!

Alongside amazing local services like The Lions Club, Wildlife Whitsundays, and Quota, we shared information, connected with the community, and had plenty of fun activities.

At our stall, we invited attendees to decorate a stone with a picture, affirmation, or a word of what they need most—hope, sunshine, love—to keep or gift to someone special. 🌟 The response? Incredible! Our activity was a hit (even if we do say so ourselves 😉).

With around 250 people in attendance, it was a fantastic opportunity to spread the word about who we are and what we do, while celebrating the season together.

💚 Thank you to everyone who stopped by and made the day so special!

🎄 It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!🎄

We were fortunate to receive 16 beautiful Christmas gift bags from Liberty Church for the women and families at our Supported Accommodation. These thoughtful gifts will help make the festive season brighter for those in our care.

Liberty Church has been a long-term supporter of our organisation—not only providing annual Christmas gift giving, but also providing Mother’s Day presents and compiling Welcome Bags for women new to our Supported Accommodation service.

A huge thank you to Liberty Church for your generosity and continued commitment to our community! 💝

🎄✨ Spreading Christmas cheer and hope! 🎁 A Heartfelt Thank You to Whitsunday Christian College for standing with us and the women we support! ✨🎄

We are beyond grateful to the amazing staff, families, and students of Whitsunday Christian College (WCC) for their incredible generosity this Christmas season 🎅

Larissa Whincop, the Chaplain for WCC, reached out about the Whitsunday Christian College Christmas Drive. Thanks to their kindness, we’ve received not only beautiful gifts but also essential personal items for women in our care—items that will make a real difference when they’re needed most.

It’s not just about the presents themselves—it’s about the love and support behind them. These donations remind the women we support that there are silent cheerleaders standing with them, rooting for their brighter future. 💜

From all of us at WCS, thank you for being part of this circle of care and hope, and for your generosity!
