The Awards Australia Local Legends Award acknowledges those everyday people doing extraordinary things within their local communities.
Rach Mac transformed from a real estate agent to a fearless survivor and advocate against domestic violence. Her creation of the Broken Crayon’s Still Colour Foundation has not only saved lives but empowered survivors. Rach takes enormous risks, personally conducting emergency relocations and providing critical support to victims. Her impact extends to legal advocacy, court support, Christmas provisions, and a transition to safer homes. Despite receiving no government funding, she raises her funds, securing an emergency relocation vehicle and establishing two safe havens for mothers and children. Rach’s dedication has led to awards and international recognition, promising lasting change in the fight against domestic violence.
Congratulations to Rach Mac for following in Fred’s footsteps by showing outstanding care and compassion for others!
