WooHoo I have done it.
WooHoo I have done it.
This is 100% done, agreement made. I am opening a NEW
shop in Wynnum that has two sides to it. One side being a Thrift shop that
gives clothes to Homeless and People in Need free 7 days a week (10 items) and
the second side being a Having a Go Coffee which only employs homeless and
people in need after they have got on their feet and of course doing suspended
coffee . WOOHOO.
This is a passion of mine, I have always wanted to be
able to help homeless with clothes, toiletries, blankets and much needed things
7 days a week and be there for them when they need it most.
Homeless and people in need will be able to come and
get free clothes and things while having a free coffee and something to eat. You
all know of the Homeless BBQ’s well
this is the next step.
I am proud and going to celebrate the fact it’s coming into action.
I know my health is bad with all that’s going wrong, but the way I see it, if
I start it then someone can continue it in the future and that means a lot of
people are going to get huge help and really that’s what it’s all about.
I can’t do this
on my own, I am asking if the community can come together to help me to help
make this huge start to something great. I need everything for the Thrift side
e.g racks and things, and everything for the coffee side counters, fridges,
plumbers and an electrician. Plus needing signs. This won’t fail because it’s going to be my legacy I leave for
others to take over.
Can I add that this location is going to need a lot of
volunteers to help give homeless free clothes and service.
I plan to open on the 1st of December, the
day after our next huge Homeless BBQ event at Musgrave Park so we can help more
people just before Christmas. Hey will event be able to make a change of
direction for some and help them to start the New Year in a more positive way.
I have to say I’m sooo excited about this WOOHOO

Sounds exciting! I've just finally logged onto your blog after you gave me the website when I bought a Big Issue a while back - and I'm so glad I finally did! It's great to learn a bit more about you and your passion for helping others. I love your passion Grant - keep up the good work. Hope to see you around the city again soon.
