Can’t begin to tell you how happy I am to let you know that the Boronia Breakfast Program will be funded for another year thanks to the Carroll Labor Government. Over the past five years, it has changed so many lives. It has served a decent meal four or five days a week to people who need it — no questions asked and no judgement given. It has helped people make friends and build connections when, for many, there were few or none. It has helped people get into housing and connected them with services they needed, including services they may never have thought to reach out to on their own. It has given people the dignity of simple things, like a haircut. Thank you to the wonderful people at Knox InfoLink and to all the volunteers who make it happen. It’s a great pleasure to have been able to help secure this funding for such a worthy and decent thing. Cheers to Jackson Taylor MP for his advocacy for this program over many years, too!
