Since she was 18, Koonung Heights Uniting Church congregation member, Peta Lowe has long understood the needs of her community and the vital work undertaken by Uniting across Victoria and Tasmania.
Her career in speech pathology, mainly focusing on supporting those in stroke rehabilitation, and teaching overseas students at Latrobe University, reflects her lifelong commitment to supporting others in challenging times.
Peta began donating to Uniting in the mid-1980s and has since taken the meaningful step of including a bequest in her Will, ensuring this work continues well beyond her lifetime.
“Uniting was an obvious choice because of my close involvement with the Uniting Church, and the fact that it is in our own community”, Peta says. “We have an active congregation who are generally interested in the work we do, and that we support quite a diverse variety of projects.”
Uniting is deeply grateful for the contribution Peta continues to make in her congregation today and for the way her legacy will touch the lives of others for years to come.
