George & Jaqui Maree Fellowship Begins

Yesterday marked the exciting start of the George & Jaqui Maree Fellowship, with the first of ten weeks now completed. The program commenced with a powerful skills identification and team-building workshop, led by the inspiring Charlotte V Rose, CPCC, to whom we extend our heartfelt thanks.

Through engaging team-based simulations, the 12 participants began exploring their individual strengths and gaining deeper insights into themselves. The impact was immediate and meaningful. One participant shared:

“Did you curate the groups? It was as though we were supposed to be in this altogether.”

We are incredibly proud to support these remarkable women who have placed their trust in us and this Fellowship.

A special thank you to George Stamas AM and Jaqui Stamas for making this journey possible through their generous support. Their commitment continues to empower our tenant community in profound ways.

We also extend our gratitude to Jessica Maybury and Chris for providing the welcoming space that now serves as our Fellowship HQ.

We look forward to sharing more updates as the Fellowship progresses and the participants continue to grow, connect, and thrive.
