Make it official!
Whether it's through sponsorship or being on staff we'd love to have you work with us to see our plans become reality.
​
We are so very grateful for the wonderful support given by all our sponsors that allows Manna Gum to help our community thrive. Some organisations are able to be the finanial bedrock - but we also know that there is real power in a collective, where all the small streams combine into a broad river that keeps us secure.
