Part of the Flood Wellbeing and Disaster Program 2025 grants.
As a generalist first-stop community support agency, Waves of Kindness (WOK) aims to empower individuals to build connections and confidence for improved wellbeing and resilience. Through their support initiative “Caring Connection” WOK assists individuals with navigating wellbeing services, connecting them to community groups, advocating for them with service providers, providing essential needs through their op shop, and offering listening and coaching support. The Flood Wellbeing and Resilience Grant will allow WOK to expand its Caring Connection service to three sites and assist 420 vulnerable residents to access benefits, government services, and social connection programs.
WOK will also partner with Sunshine Beach State School and the RAISE Program to enhance the resilience and wellbeing of young people, especially those facing mental health challenges and barriers. Additionally, WOK’s op shops will be linked to the Noosa Local Disaster Management Plan to provide essential items and packages to people in need.
