Dragons partner with Wollongong Homeless Hub for 50-50 Charity Raffle
The St George Illawarra Dragons are once again partnering with Wollongong Homeless Hub & Housing Services for Round 2's 50-50 Charity Raffle at WIN Stadium.
Wollongong Homeless Hub & Housing Services have been supporting the Illawarra for nearly 40 years and is a vital organisation providing emergency, medium- and long-term accommodation, housing support, and essential services to those facing homelessness or at risk of homelessness in the Illawarra.
With the rising need for safe and secure housing, the work of Wollongong Homeless Hub is more important than ever.
Their programs offer outreach services, accommodation, support/guidance, and a pathway to stability for individuals and families in crisis.
Alongside the Dragons Community Team, Keele Browne and Ben Rumble paid a visit to Fairy Meadow's Wollongong Homeless Hub & Housing Services on Wednesday morning to help with pantry re-stocking.
"It's really important for us to be here," Browne said.
"A big part of what we do in the community is helping people out and supporting those who may not get as many opportunities as others. We just want to play any part with whatever avenue that may look like. We do a lot of different types of things in the community. We're just trying to help out or help inspire others."
"We're just helping out at Wollongong Homeless Hub stocking some food and making sure they're all sweet with whatever they need," Rumble echoed.
"You always want to be a part of stuff like this. We're bigger than just football, you know, we want to help out the community."
We encourage all fans to show their support – every donation, big or small, helps make a difference.
Together, as a club and community, we can tackle homelessness and help change lives.
