At Maeraki Australia, we believe in supporting groups and local communities that are making a difference to those that are in need of support.
Not only do we want to provide the best quality products to our customers but we want our customers to know that we also care about people in general especially those impacted by unfortunate events. It is not always about the profit but the purpose of what the brand stands for, we care about the community we live in and we want to help out as much as we could to make the lives of those that are impacted better.
Over the years, we’ve seen the impacts of the bushfires, floods and more recently Covid-19 have on people’s lives. Loss of life and livelihood are just the few impacts to name a few. Because of this, we’ve reached out to a few local charity organisations where we know the local community is impacted by the pandemic and natural disasters, and see how we could make a difference.
