Episode 1
You've probably heard the name Catherine Kolomyjec before, and if you haven't, you've certainly come to the right place. With 40-plus years of community work under her belt, it's no surprise that Catherine is our first guest to appear on the podcast.
In this episode, we take a trip down memory lane, diving into Catherine's time as a Santa Maria College student, all the way through to her work overseas as a refugee coordinator, and the co-founding of her Perth-based charity, Soul Gestures.
Catherine has held a special relationship with the College over the years. She continues to visit our students, inspiring them to engage in acts of kindness that bring positivity to their community.
We hope you enjoy this episode!
