Salvation Army Christmas Donation 2023

Our Managing Director, Esi Garcia, has kindly donated, again, bags of grocery items to the Salvation Army Corp here in Bunbury.  Esi chooses to do this every year to help those in need.

This time of year can be a time of greater need and therefore the Salvation Army rely on community donations for distribution.  The Salvation Army do tremendous work in the community supporting those less fortunate.

The donation was dropped off yesterday and as always, the tireless workers and volunteers at the Salvation Army Corp were grateful for such a generous donation.

Ludlow Tuart Forest Restoration Group Donation

Last weekend, the South West Personnel team joined the volunteers at the Ludlow Tuart Forest Restoration Group (ludlowtuartforest.org.au) for the very first day of the 2022 planting season.

The planting takes place annually in an effort to protect and restore the historical and unique beauty of the Ludlow Tuart Forest. 

Community responsibility is important to South West Personnel so it was only fitting to continue our 30 year celebrations by giving back to the environment with a donation of 1,000 tuart seedlings.

Armed with our buckets of seedlings, measuring poles and spades we went to work planting amongst the tranquillity of the Ludlow State Forest in an effort to make a difference to protecting and restoring the largest remaining pure forest of Tuart trees in the world.

South West Personnel’s Managing Director, Esi Garcia led the way through the planting adventure and thanked the volunteers of the Restoration Group that work tirelessly towards reforestation for future generations, biodiversity, tourism, education and research.

A special thank you to Des, Evelyn and Bill for making us feel so welcome during our planting session – such a memorable experience and the morning tea scones were sensational.

We recognise and acknowledge Wardandi People as the traditional owners of the Tuart Forest National Park.

Celebrating 30 Years

In late 2021, South West Personnel celebrated 30 successful years in business. 

South West Personnel was founded in 1991 by our Managing Director, Esi Garcia, with a clear vision and commitment to provide excellence in recruitment within the South West Region of Western Australia. 

We have continued throughout the last 30 years to keep that vision and commitment alive by successfully establishing and maintaining positive relationships with our valued clients and workers.  

Community responsibility is important to us and we have proudly partnered with the Ludlow Tuart Forest Restoration Group to purchase 1,000 Tuart seedlings to plant as part of the 2022 planting season.  This pledge will allow the South West Personnel team to give back to the land by supporting, contributing and participating in forest restoration.

RSPCA Cupcake Day 2021

Well the staff at South West Personnel certainly enjoy getting behind great causes and raising money when they can.  It is even more fun when they can create interesting looking cupcakes and eat them as well!

Each year, more than 124,000 animals turn to the RSPCA looking for help.  Money raised goes towards fighting animal cruelty and assists in giving mistreated animals a second chance.

A big thank you to our Payroll Officer Dannielle Pope for organising this fundraising event.

Salvation Army- Christmas Appeal

2020 has been a difficult time for most but even more so for those already experiencing hardship.  South West Personnel, as part of an initiative introduced by our Managing Director and founder Esi Garcia,  is proud to be donating food hampers to the Salvation Army again this year.  While most of us are fortunate in that we get to enjoy the festive season, some people have nowhere to sleep, kids go without gifts and people struggle to afford a basic meal.  If you would like to contribute to this very worthy cause visit https:https://www.salvationarmy.org.au/christmas/give-back-this-christma...
