“… we all get a little carried away that the “people in the city” don’t give a darn about us, but it’s nice to know we are proved wrong and we can’t thank you enough for the wonderful hampers that were personally delivered by your fantastic volunteers.”
“Our drought seems to be getting worse, so we were grateful for your kindness, it is also wonderful to know that someone is thinking of us in the midst of what is really a natural disaster. Thank you for your moral and practical support.”
“Heartfelt thanks for your hard work and compassion in caring for the “bush”. We sincerely wish to also thank those who have volunteered to assist Care Outreach, including the companies, businesses, community groups and individuals. Your efforts have served to bring us happiness and give us strength. Just to know people care has a long lasting and profound impact on our lives.”
” I am writing this letter with a special thank you … and those people who donated goods and gifts to make a lot of peoples Christmas’s very special. A LITTLE BIT OF THOUGHTFULNESS FROM A LOT OF PEOPLE GOES A LONG WAY.”
“… whether by design or accident 3 lovely fellows turned up at our small farm, on the anniversary of my husband’s passing. 5 years of drought, unexpected financial loss, assault on a family member … left us still finding refuge for those worse off than ourselves. . . it is rare, almost unheard of for us to receive unsolicited gifts. We have not looked for them, but on occasion have wondered how others “come by” tid-bits when we would have welcomed something ourselves. THEN, your fellows turned up. With smiles & goodwill all round, listening but not mournful, chipper in their comments. How can we thank you? We can’t! Everything in the box was useful and of a brand we might have bought ourselves. Thank you for this perspective of not only ‘giving out’ but sometimes being worthy enough to receive a gift as well …”
“Thank you for thinking of the people in our area. We are still experiencing severe drought and have not had any sort of break from it for over 3 and 1/2 years. We appreciated your kind thoughts and although we are a fairly ‘tough and resilient mob’ we are all feeling the financial and emotional strains of such a long dry period.”
” We would like to thank Care Outreach very much for bringing Christmas to our home. We have been very touched by your organisations care and we are so very grateful to all who donated. All we can say is THANK YOU. Times of drought are so cruel, mentally, physically and financially, but your thoughtfulness has helped to ease the pain.”
