ESA – Epsilon Sigma AlphaA Community of Purpose and Friendship
ESA (Epsilon Sigma Alpha) is a service-focused organization built on the values of meaningful friendships, impactful service, and shared joy.
We live out these ideals by actively engaging in lifelong learning, giving back to our communities, and surrounding ourselves with people who inspire us to grow into the best versions of ourselves.
We’re part of ESA International—a worldwide group of people who care deeply about community and connection. Here in Queensland, ESA is proudly incorporated and active in towns and cities across the state. We work with heart, purpose, and a good sense of humour, knowing that even small efforts can create a big impact.
ESA is more than meetings and fundraising—it’s a place to belong. Take a look around our site to see what we’re all about. If it feels like a good fit, we’d love to welcome you into our circle.
A Message from the President
Hi let me introduce myself my name is Judy Jesshope.

I am ESA Queensland State President for 25/26 . I have been a member of ESA International Alpha Rho Mackay Branch for 15 year now. In that time I have held various positions within the branch, district and state. (Branch & District President, Branch, District & State Parliamentarian, Branch Treasurer and a few other positions).
As I embark on this journey as State President for 2025-2026, I am guided by my theme for the year: “Knowledge & Wisdom are our Strengths for the Future”. These values remind us that the choices we make today, shaped by our understanding and insight, will forge a better tomorrow for all of us.
Outside of ESA the things I enjoy are working as Disability Support Worker, reading and gym.
“Tree of Life, each branch is a symbol of your love, your strength, your friends, your family, your goals, your hopes and dreams. They all create the tree of your life. Step back and see that you are truly blessed.”
