Congratulations to Southern Cross Community Housing, winner of the Excellence in Innovation award.

Sponsored by Quest Nowra, this award recognises businesses that have made significant contributions to their industry through the introduction or improvement of an idea, method, technology, process or application.

The judges said the following about Southern Cross Community Housing:

Southern Cross Community Housing is a not-for-profit community based organisation whose charter is to help provide secure, safe and affordable housing for those who are homeless, are on low incomes or have special needs. In late 2015 it was recognised that the community and business awareness of the significant issue of homelessness in the Shoalhaven needed an alternative approach to attract support. The Shark Tank, a new approach to this sector, has achieved outstanding success with the event repeated recently with increased participation raising much needed funding as well creating community awareness of the problem and is now a model for other regional areas.
