Mineral Resources Donate Mobility Vans

In case you missed it, Telethon 2024 brought more than expected for our humble mobility mission: Mineral Resources surprised our Chair, David Fraser, with the incredible news that they would be funding two more mobility vans for Wheels For Hope!

Watch: Mineral Resources surprises Wheels For Hope with a special donation.

Alecia’s story is one of the many we are proud to be part of. Mobility may be something many take for granted, but for the families we help, it can be a life-changing gift.

Some families can be on our waitlist for quite some time, as the demand often surpasses what our small fleet of long-term-use vehicles can provide. These new additions will allow us to give more families the gift of mobility – which is just outstanding.

A massive thank you to Mineral Resources for their generosity, and to Telethon for supporting us once again in their 2024 fundraising event.

Feeling inspired? Here’s how you can get involved.

Wheels For Hope depends on the generosity of donors and sponsors to keep our mobility mission moving. Beyond the vans themselves, this helps pay for services, insurance, licensing… all the things needed to keep our wheels moving. There are a few ways you can help:

  1. One-off donations or monthly sponsorships – you can set up one off or regular donations through the donations section on our website. You can also get in touch with us if you have questions about the process.

  2. Corporate support – donating a percentage of profits, payroll giving, or other sponsorship to supply things we need (like vehicle servicing). Making charity part of your CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) plan can also be a great way to show your commitment to the local community and foster goodwill.

  3. Fundraising and events – whether you want to host your own fundraiser or show your support by taking part in one of our upcoming events, we appreciate it!
