It is unfortunate for us to have to acknowledge that shortfall of funding is a limiting factor in the services that we provide to our members and the community, in that we cannot provide full time employment to all our staff. This places added pressure on the organization in maintaining support services and does not allow for any expansion in this area. There is no doubt that demands for our services increases each year, and as a consequence, additional staff hours and more administration costs also increase. Therefore, we need to seriously address fundraising, and/or seek continued government funding. To this end, the input of suggestions from all concerned members, staff, and other interested people will be welcomed to ensure this deserving organization can continue the work it was set up to perform. There can also be no doubting the organization has come a long way since 1995, when it was created by founding members in Townsville. It was self-funded in the beginning, and on 27 th of April 1998, QHVSG became a partly funded organization. A special thanks to our current funding body- Queensland Government Department of Justice and Attorney General – Victims Assist Queensland. For the Hon. Treasurer 28 <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> <strong>2013</strong> - <strong>2014</strong>
