Residents Round Up for Our Local Community

The Beauty Point community spirit extends far beyond our wonderful village. There’s something so special about Beauty Point and how our big our residents’ hearts are – they just love to come together and join forces when the community is in need.

Last month, residents Sue and Jan along with their army of volunteers joined forces to organise a garage sale at Beauty Point, with all proceeds going to Biyani House.

Biyani House is a women’s shelter in the local Revesby area that has just started up. It is part of the Women’s Community Shelter Network and provides short term emergency accommodation as well as support. All in a safe environment that enables homeless women to rebuild self esteem and achieve control and fulfillment of their lives.

Vintage jewellery, clothing, bags, glassware, gorgeous food and of course, a delicious morning tea helped to raise over $3,000! We are so proud that our generous Beauty Pointers could make this happen, allowing us to contribute towards changing the lives of more women in need.

More recently, our very own Pam Pitkeathly hosted her twenty-first Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea in Beauty Point’s cafe. Friendly neighbours helped out by bringing a plate, donating to the prize pool and selling raffle tickets in the lead-up. It was the perfect excuse to catch up with friends over some coffee and tea, not to mention all the delicious sweet treats, whilst supporting such an important cause. Pam managed to raise over $3,750 – far exceeding her goal of $1,000!
