Unfortunately our long-standing legend Makka has recently received some bad health news, we want to help him out since he's put in the hard yards for us for the last decade. He is now taking time off from work while he undergoes treatment, we are hoping to lift any financial troubles while he is off work during his treatment and recovery period.

We hosted a Karma Keg event at the end of last year which raised some money, but many of you wanted to help out some more so we've created this page for you to donate directly. If you are able to, please donate as any little bit helps.

Thank you,

The Malthouse Family

The Malthouse's involvement (page creator)

Makka has worked for us at the Malthouse for the last 12 years

Use of funds

The money raised will go straight to Makka to help him out financially while he is away from work undergoing treatment and recovering over the next 7 months. This will help reduce financial stress for Makka and his family during this time.

Thank You Everyone!  30 January 2025

More than doubled since I left that last update! This truly means so much we really appreciate it.

Tomorrow is Makka's 12 year anniversary of working at the Malthouse, we'd love if you could come through even just to say hello. There's a great tap lineup, the man himself will pop in, some banging tunes an tasty food. Looking to be a great day!

Cheers everyone!
