$400,000 boost for Eugowra Community Children’s Centre thanks to Evolution Mining

Eugowra Community Children’s Centre has received over $400,000 from Evolution Mining to contribute to their new purpose-built long day care service.

 

Specifically, the donation will help to fund the long day care room in the new service, which is set to open in 2026. 

 

With the original service having been destroyed in the 2022 floods, and now operating from a temporary location, the funding will significantly assist the community in getting this vital service back up and running. 

 

“We are absolutely certain that the impacts of this donation will be long lasting as we can now ensure that future generations of local families will have access to this critical service for many years to come,” the Eugowra Community Children’s Centre Management Committee said in a statement. 

 

Speaking on behalf of Evolution Northparkes Operations General Manager Rob Cunningham said this was an outstanding project for Evolution to be involved in and really reinforced the strong commitment to support communities where they operate.

 

“Childcare is a need throughout Australia, but Eugowra, as it recovers from the 2022 floods, is such a worthy recipient,” he said.

 

“We are thrilled to partner with the team at Eugowra Community Children’s Centre and we’re looking forward to seeing the final results as the build progresses.”
