AMCAL has presented a $200,000 donation to charity partner RizeUp Australia at its recent 10th Anniversary Gala Ball.

Founded in 2015, RizeUp works in partnership with agencies to provide support for those affected by family and domestic violence.

Since launching the partnership in Oct 2024, Amcal has supported a number of RizeUp’s home setups around the country, as they deliver fully furnished homes and urgent support to victim-survivors.

So far, Amcal has raised $350,000 in total to support the organisation.

Amcal has also rolled out an in-store, point-of-sale fundraising campaign, giving customers the opportunity to donate.

Renee Watson, Sigma’s Head of Retail Operations, said: “Amcal is very proud to partner with RizeUp, a standalone organisation that shares our Amcal values of compassion and community-focus, and enables Amcal to help as many people as possible.

“Amcal is delighted to provide our financial contribution to ensure RizeUp can continue to provide life-changing support, a safe environment, and a chance for families to start over,” she said.

RizeUp Australia’s CEO & Founder, Nicolle Edwards, acknowledged Amcal’s “extraordinary generosity” and investment in the safety and recovery of those impacted by domestic and family violence.

“This level of support enables RizeUp to scale our impact, accelerate our response, and deliver critical services where they are needed most,” Edwards said.

“Together, we are creating meaningful, measurable change in the lives of those we serve.” KB
