Madills match made in heaven

This week, Katie Rose Cottage Hospice and Madill Motor Group announced they will be working together to support the work the hospice does in providing best in class, locally delivered palliative care.

Unique in Australia, Katie Rose is the only palliative care facility that is funded principally by the community.

Hospice head of fundraising and partnerships Leigh McCready said, “We are absolutely thrilled to be partnering with Madills as our silver sponsor for the upcoming Forget-me-not Gala, following their previous support for our other events.”

“Itself a long-established and highly respected organisation in Noosa, Madills is a huge supporter of many charities and community organisations in Noosa and we are looking forward to a long-lasting relationship as the hospice grows and expands its services to help even more community members.”

Madill Motor Group general manager Simon Guthrie said, “Supporting our local community is one of our core values at Madill Motor Group. That’s why we work closely with several worthwhile charities and we ask customers to help decide where to share our funding.”

“When you purchase a car through us, you are not only supporting a family-owned business, but also supporting the local community through Madill’s $20,000 Community Donation.

“After purchasing any Madill Motor Group vehicle, customers have the choice of two local charities that do wonderful things within our community to nominate who we donate to. Twice a year, we tally up our responses and split our donation based on our customers’ requests.

“Your hardest decision will be choosing just one charity for us to contribute to! We know Katie Rose is a popular and highly respected local charity and we are delighted to be partnering with them on the upcoming, inaugural fundraising Gala.”

Ms McCready said, “We are fortunate to receive so much support from local businesses and individuals to continue the work we do. In addition to today’s announcement, we are delighted to be working with the other local organisations which come on board to support the Gala, including Bruff Painting and Haymes Paint, Priest Jewellers, Alba Noosa, Acres Noosa, Altum Property Group, Isabella’s Fine & Antique Jewellery, Tipi Luxe, Emerald Noosa Resort, Poolworld Noosa, Frenchies Brasserie, Push Promotions, Pearls for Girls, Synda & Rose Design and Marketing, Sails Restaurant Noosa, Gusto Riverfront Restaurant and Coastline BMW.”

Limited tickets to the Gala are available through the Katie Rose Cottage Hospice website or Facebook page.
