Renovations for the Bush School Pool
We are fortunate at Wahroonga Public School to have two swimming pools on site, which are used in the warmer months for student swimming lessons. They are a legacy of the strength of the School's P&C Association - designed and built by the P&C back in 1958! Naturally, they require maintenance and regular maintenance. We are seeking for assistance from our local community to help keep these pools in mint condition for our children to use.
Beerwah Colour Stampede
We all know how greatly affected small businesses have been by the recent Covid 19, and Beerwah Businesses and Community groups are no different. That is why this year, Beerwah Kindy is hosting our inaugural ‘Colour Stampede’ at the Beerwah Sportsground on May 30th 2021. This event will not only raise much needed funds for our Community based kindy, but for the Sportsground & Rural Fire Brigade too. This event is for the Hinterland and greater community and will help raise the morale after such hard times have been had. If you are unable to attend the 'Colour Stampede' but wish to contribute you still can. We appreciate and thank you for your support.

QSAR Vetwork Fundraiser
QSAR is a full charity run by a passionate group of volunteers who try to rescue as many staffies as possible. As at writing, we have 84 dogs in care, including 4 permanent palliative fosters, and we are receiving on average 35 plus requests for surrenders a day as well as continued cries for assistance from pounds we work with across Qld and NSW. We have been seeing a lot of amazing rescues having to close their doors for intake right now, and it is a super tough environment to be a rescue. We are so pleased that we have been able to keep our doors open and keep saving dogs, but we are absolutely struggling. We have a small team of mighty volunteers who are out nearly every weekend at events trying to raise funds for us, but we need help, we can't do it alone. We need to raise $15,000 to clear a significant amount of bills to our vet teams. We need to pay our vet bills down so that we can continue to keep our doors open and keep welcoming dogs into care.

HubFood is designed to ensure that students get nutritious meals and help them save their precious dollars to pay their bills. To donate money so Eat Real can provide cooked meals to International students, cooked by fellow international volunteer student chefs.
Lulu’s eye surgery
Can you help? Darling Lulu is only six years old. She has been blind in one eye since birth. She is a happy playful girl that loves everyone. Unfortunately her mum is unable to care for her at the moment, as she has been admitted to a psychiatric unit. Life has just become too much for her mum. As soon as Lulu came into care we took her to the vet for a check up. The vet has revealed that her blind eye is like a rotten tooth. It needs to be removed immediately. It is causing her pain, as it is infected. Not only that, but her other eye has Cherry eye, so that will need surgery too. She is also in much need of dental work. So we have no choice but to organise for this to be done A.S.A.P. We don’t know how long her mum will be in hospital, and we know that these costs are out of her reach. Lulu will be in foster care for the next few months whilst her mum gets well, but we will be in regular contact with her. If you could help us with the cost of the surgery, we would be so grateful.
Love Bien
You made it to the donation page! Welcome, we’re happy to see you. *Technically* this fundraiser is complete - we had target to reach by 31st May (which we hit!) - so we've now stopped hounding our friends (you) for donations. However, if you would still like to contribute to the 2021 Biennale (which takes place in November), feel free to chip in here. We will still be incredibly appreciative and every single dollar counts when it comes to a cultural festival (read: they're expensive to put on). You probably already know that the Fremantle Biennale is run entirely on grants and donations - and all money raised is directed towards supporting local artists in presenting exciting new artworks. We're grateful for all levels of support. Finally - if you can't contribute financially - can we ask you to help us spread the word about the Fremantle Biennale instead? Perhaps through social media or word of mouth. That really helps so much too. See you in November.
Archbishop Elect Ric Thorpe - Gift
Hi friends, We are creating a small gift for Archbishop Elect Ric Thorpe, which will be fully created at the Prayer Night on October 9th, but you can add to it at a later date, both with your prayers and finances. If you weren't at the prayer night, the gift is a lego set covered in prayers and encouragements as he seeks to lead the diocese into this new season. Any extra that is given beyond the costs involved will be gifted to +Ric Thorpe in a visa gift card to contribute to the setting up of his house for hospitality, a passion of both +Ric and Louie Thorpe.
