Charter Hall shopping centres partner with<br />
Two Good to provide 20,000 meals to women in need<br />
LEADING property group Charter Hall has partnered with social<br />
enterprise Two Good to provide 20,000 meals to domestic violence<br />
survivors throughout Australia.<br />
From <strong>June</strong> 27 to July<br />
14, Charter Hall, in partnership<br />
with the communities<br />
in which they<br />
operate, is “Delivering<br />
Good” across 26 of<br />
its shopping centres<br />
and raising awareness<br />
about family and<br />
domestic violence.<br />
As part of this campaign,<br />
Charter Hall will<br />
provide meals to women<br />
and children in refuges<br />
nationwide.<br />
Giant jigsaw puzzle<br />
frames will be set up<br />
in participating centres<br />
including West Ryde<br />
Marketplace with shoppers<br />
encouraged to<br />
play their part by adding<br />
their piece to the<br />
puzzle.<br />
<strong>The</strong> puzzle-building<br />
process symbolises<br />
domestic violence survivors<br />
rebuilding their<br />
lives and the role the<br />
community can play.<br />
With every piece put<br />
into its place, a Two<br />
Good meal will be donated<br />
to a nearby shelter,<br />
up to 800 meals.<br />
Greg Chubb, Head of<br />
Retail for Charter Hall,<br />
says: “We are delighted<br />
and privileged to partner<br />
with Two Good to<br />
deliver this campaign.<br />
As an owner and manager<br />
of conveniencebased<br />
shopping centres<br />
Australia-wide, we<br />
take our responsibility<br />
of giving back seriously.<br />
“One in four women in<br />
Australia experience<br />
domestic violence at<br />
some point, and many<br />
of them end up in refuges<br />
whilst they<br />
work through this very<br />
challenging time in their<br />
lives. Two Good is doing<br />
extraordinary work<br />
in supporting these<br />
shelters and the women<br />
in them, and Charter<br />
Hall is honoured to be<br />
able to support<br />
Two Good to reach<br />
into regional Australia.<br />
We are also grateful<br />
that both Neil Perry and<br />
Maggie Beer are supporting<br />
us in delivering<br />
this important donation,”<br />
he added.<br />
A puzzle builder will<br />
start the build at West<br />
Ryde Marketplace and<br />
encourage shoppers to<br />
participate.<br />
As the pieces of the<br />
puzzle come together<br />
they will reveal images<br />
of the Two Good community<br />
including founder<br />
Rob Caslick, Delivering<br />
Good ambassadors<br />
Neil Perry and Maggie<br />
Beer and some<br />
of the beautiful women<br />
within the community<br />
who have experienced<br />
domestic violence.<br />
Shoppers who get<br />
involved in-centre and<br />
choose a ‘golden’ puzzle<br />
piece at random will<br />
also receive a Maggie<br />
Beer cookbook or a<br />
Rockpool dining experience<br />
valued at $600.<br />
Two Good founder<br />
Rob Caslick says: “We<br />
are thrilled to be partnering<br />
with Charter<br />
Hall Retail to raise the<br />
awareness of domestic<br />
violence in regional<br />
areas, and to take our<br />
message and work beyond<br />
Australia’s largest<br />
cities.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> 20,000 meals<br />
funded by the Delivering<br />
Good campaign<br />
will go directly to shelters<br />
and refuges close<br />
to those centres,” said<br />
Rob.<br />
“It is incredibly important<br />
for Charter Hall to<br />
support the<br />
local communities in<br />
which they operate and<br />
to connect with and<br />
provide a positive benefit<br />
for those communities.”<br />
Since Two Good began<br />
its work in late<br />
2016, the organisation<br />
has delivered more than<br />
40,000 meals to refuges<br />
and shelters and has<br />
established a kitchen in<br />
Sydney where domestic<br />
violence survivors<br />
can train for jobs in<br />
hospitality.<br />
