Hi, I’m Yaoyao, HOPE’s website administrator.
I’m currently refreshing the look and feel of our website to make it more engaging, user-friendly, and easier to navigate. As part of this update, we’ve renamed some menu pages and reorganized sub-pages to enhance accessibility.
🏆 Special Announcement
HOPE Inc. Receives Queensland Gives Grant to Enhance Governance
We are thrilled to announce that Householders’ Options to Protect the Environment (HOPE) Inc. has been successful in its application for a Queensland Gives grant. The $1,800 grant will fund essential governance training for our President, Mrs. Anna Kula-Kaczmarski, through the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD).
This valuable training will equip Anna with in-depth knowledge of not-for-profit director responsibilities in areas such as governance, risk management, financial performance, and strategic planning. The benefits of this enhanced expertise will extend throughout HOPE Inc., strengthening our management committee and supporting our mission to promote environmental protection and sustainable living.
We extend our sincere gratitude to Queensland Gives for their generous support, which will empower our volunteer team to operate with even greater effectiveness and impact.
