Emerald Primary School Supports Wheelchairs for Kids
 
It's wonderful to see pupils of Emerald Primary School get behind fundraising for the Rotary Project, Wheelchairs for kids.
 
The children children are doing a great job with their fundraising efforts and does not take into account the $550 the Rotary Club of Emerald are adding to the total.
If you would like to support all the little fundraising superstars by adding to their total, please go to the link below or scan the QR code on the poster below.
 
For more information on the work of Wheelchairs for Kids, please visit
Wheelchairs For Kids is an entirely volunteer-based not-for-profit organisation that designs, builds and distributes rough terrain wheelchairs to children living with disabilities around the world, at no cost to the recipient.
 
Since 1998, we’ve donated more than 54,000 wheelchairs to 90 locations globally, with the help of more than 750 volunteers who donate their time and expertise at our workshop in Perth. Our wheelchairs are purpose built to withstand the rugged topographies of countries like Afghanistan, Vietnam, Cambodia, Bosnia, Ethiopia and Mozambique, where disability rates are high and many families can’t afford or access the support they need.
The recent cake decorating and bubbles fundraiser was a great success raising $1500.
 
As important was the fun and laughter on the evening as 42 or so attendees iced cakes under the guidance of Jayne Gibbs from Funky Cakes.
 
Well done to the Fundraising Committee for an excellent evening!
