In 2005 the Foundation was approached by OHCS to help find a new home for the Op Shop. The Foundation responded favourably to this request and sold an asset that had been bequeathed to it to release the funds to purchase a shop. That shop is now leased to the Auxilliary and is the home of the highly successful Op Shop.
