This week, uLaunch celebrated its goal of achieving 500 Jobs for Christmas with donations to Sudbury House!
Together, uLaunch and Jobfind, both AKG companies, had the aim at the beginning of November to support 500 job seekers to start new jobs by Christmas 2024. To further fuel the mission, both teams were determined to donate to two charities of choice if they successfully met their goal.
Both companies are thrilled to report that not only did they meet their goal—they exceeded it, achieving a remarkable 822 jobs for Christmas.
Now, 822 individuals have the stability of job security this holiday season, allowing them to celebrate Christmas and welcome the New Year with the hope and optimism that a new job brings. Truly, this is the greatest gift of all during the festive season.
uLaunch and Jobfind are committed to serving some of Australia’s most vulnerable individuals, providing tailored support to help them develop skills and gain meaningful employment. However, they don’t achieve this alone. Their participants and job seekers benefit immensely from robust community partnerships with service providers offering additional wraparound support to those who need it most. Recognising the vital role these community connections play, both organisations were determined to give back to their allies and partners.
One such partner, Sudbury House in Mirrabooka, is a shining example of community empowerment and inclusivity. This non-profit organisation offers vital services and support programs, all driven by their unwavering ethos of ensuring that “no one is left behind.” In recognition of their remarkable impact, uLaunch is proud to donate $2,500 to support Sudbury House’s mission of building a stronger, more connected community.
uLaunch Area Manager Ra Grimm had the honour of presenting a $2,500 cheque to Mike Dixon, CEO of Sudbury House, on behalf of uLaunch.
