“The partnership provides us with a valuable opportunity to give back to the 370 communities that support us in a worthwhile way,” he said.
As part of Hungry Jack’s partnership, it will sponsor the R U OK? Conversation Bus, which will launch in Darwin on Thursday, 7 August and travel 12,000km across Australia.
