Fortitude Valley donations
Recently we have donated more than $170,000 to local charities through the unique partnership I organised with our Brunswick Street Mall tenant – 8848 Momo House.
Last year $32,233 was collected – it will be shared evenly between six local charities:
• 3rd Space Limited
• Brisbane Youth Service Inc
• Open Doors Youth Service Inc
• Suited to Success Limited
• Access Arts
• Valley Hearts
This brings the total donation figure to $174,551 since my program began in 2016 for our Fortitude Valley Donations
