Opening 16 March – Volunteers Needed 

Neighbours Aid Op Shops is pleased to announce the grand opening of its newest store in Minyama on 16 March, marking an exciting new chapter for the organisation and the Sunshine Coast community.

Every purchase supports Neighbours Aid’s international projects empowering vulnerable children and communities. 

Suzie Hinson, Operations Manager said the move to Minyama represents a positive step forward for both the organisation and the Sunshine Coast community. 

“Our new Minyama Op Shop will allow us to offer a larger and more accessible store for customers, while continuing the important work that Neighbours Aid is known for.  We want to thank our Mooloolaba community for their years of support and warmly invite everyone to join us at the new location on opening day.”
