Chinese Australian Services Society

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I rise today to recognise the Chinese Australian Services Society for their continued commitment to the St George region. Every week, their services are utilised by more than 3,300 families across the Greater Sydney area. The organisation has played a critical role in supporting our community through the recent COVID-19 pandemic and for that we are all very thankful. During this time, the organisation has ramped up their services for the elderly including their home care packages to ensure that everyone has access to their food, groceries and essentials. I have been working with the team at CASS for almost 10 years now and in that time I have seen many faces, but what has not changed is the organisation's commitment to their clients. Whether you need disability assistance, child care or support as an elderly Australian, CASS has a program to suit your needs and I encourage you to reach out for their help and support. Thank you again to all staff and volunteers at the Chinese Australian Services Society.
