Coles aims to break record
CURRENTLY sitting at the top seven of the highest fundraising stores in Queensland, Coles Innisfail is looking to take the stakes even higher by fundraising $5000 for the Coles Big Freeze campaign and support people living with MND.
Since 2019 the Coles Innisfail team have fundraised $8500 toward the Big Freeze campaign, leading them to become one of the highest fundraising shops across Queensland.
Last year the team raised over $4000 and this year they’re looking to break their own record and fundraise $5000 to reach even more people affected by Motor Neurone Disease (MND). The campaign finalises tomorrow.
Store manager Matthew Hammond said the fundraiser meant a lot to the team and they had been holding lots of events to break their record.
“I started with the Coles Innisfail team a year ago and from the beginning this was something that the team and some of the department managers had told me that the community had got behind over the last few years,” Mr Hammond said.
“Last year they raised just over $4000 last year so I motivated the team to get behind it again.
“I think we can break our record.”
