About the Role:
Korus Connect helps build communities that are connected, supported and whole. Korus Connect works in collaboration with local community groups who are passionate about people and seek to initiate positive change in their local community. In partnership with them, Korus Connect recruits, trains and deploys Community Connectors into local community hubs to act as conduits for engagement and transformation.
Operating out of shopping centres, aged care facilities, schools and a range of other community hubs, Community Connectors acknowledge the inherent value of every person. Underpinned by the values, beliefs and principles of Korus Connect, Community Connectors are qualified to support spiritual wellbeing, mental health, social, emotional and physical needs. Community Connectors are trained to identify and work with those at risk and to work collaboratively with other organisations in order to offer a holistic response to community needs.
As Community Connectors, providing pastoral care and building bridges of support are key responsibilities. They both walk alongside people and help connect them into other community organisations, groups, and external support and welfare agencies.

ABOUT THE PHILIPPINES MEDICAL MISSION TRIP
FGA Melbourne organises a yearly medical mission to provide medical attention and optical services to the people of Pasig and Caloocan in Philippines for FREE. Our volunteer doctors, dentists, optometrists and mission members pay their own way for the trip and cover their own local costs, enabling 100% of funds raised to be directed to the work of the mission.
The poorest Filipino family earns an average income of about AUD5 daily. Expenses for food account for two-thirds of a family of five’s expenditures, followed by expenditure for electricity, water and other fuels. Healthcare in Philippines has yet to be free or subsidized. Thus, for the sick to seek medical help it is the least of their priorities. So for some, going to a doctor would mean having to forgo breakfast, lunch or dinner for a day, two days or a week. It would mean borrowing money from another relative, whom they can never repay. Or work a few more shifts in a factory to buy medication or pay the hospital bills. If you are the breadwinner of the family, falling sick would mean your children will have no food on the table when they’re hungry. Therefore many people wait until they are at their final stages of illness before going to the hospital. Some never recover from their illnesses.
This coming April, FGA Melbourne will run their 6th annual medical mission trip to provide medical,dental attention and optical services to the people of Pasig and Caloocan in Philippines for FREE. However, we cannot do this on our own. We are hoping to raise $15,000 by the 22nd of April to set up mobile clinics, and your contribution will go to buying medication and other essential supplies for them.
Partner with us and we will bring your love to the people of Philippines at our own expenses.
Your simple contribution will go a long long way.
From the bottom of our hearts, we want to thank you for your heart of giving and for blessing the people of Philippines.
