Sunassist is a local volunteer based community organisation providing a very valuable community transport service to the elderly and people living with disability. Sunassist requires a wheelchair accessible vehicle to support the elderly and people living with a disability to access critical health and medical services in the community.

Transport is vital in enabling opportunities for the aged and people with disabilities to participate wholly in society, and quality of life indicators such as employment, social connectedness, civil and political rights, access to health, and education are severely restricted without such access. This project addresses the need for an accessible vehicle that Sunassist can use to provide a community transport service to the elderly and people living with a disability to access available services in the Mildura community.

Sunassist is a vital community service and with increasing older residents needs to be valued and supported to expand.

Please get behind this fantastic initiative, Sunassist really helps our community, providing valuable support for people who find it difficult to access important health and social needs. And the backbone of this organisation are the wonderful volunteers.

Obviously this service is very important to the community, as people with disabilities heavily rely on appropriate transport, without it, they simply cannot go anywhere and are confined to home.

I interact with Sunassist at least twice a year (I do not live in the Mallee) and they impress me HUGELY. I* am involved in community welfare in the south-eastern suburbs and I have a sound understanding of the needs that Sunassist is meeting. I admire their work enormously.
