Over $5,000 raised at the Perth Tradie Expo!
It was great to be back at the Perth Tradie Expo over the weekend of 17-19 June. Not even the wet weather could dampen our spirits as we managed to raise $5,331.70 for childhood cancer research!
The always-popular event at Ascot Racecourse provides a once-a-year opportunity for tradies and DIY enthusiasts to purchase tools and equipment at bargain prices. To gain entry, attendees pay a small gold coin donation to charity. We were thrilled to be invited back to the Expo, collecting donations alongside the Desperate for Love Dog Pound Rescue.
This incredible result would not have been possible without our amazing volunteers who generously donated their time to collect these funds. A big thank you to Jon, Pia, Alecia, Sarah, Tayla, Keely, Gui, Eiji, Ravina, Kim, Emma, Catherine, Jacky, Andrea, Gordon, Judy, Fennis, Keely, Paul, Angus, Tegan, Logan, Curtis, Wendy, Gary, Paul and Tony!
We would also like to thank every single person who attended the Expo and decided to put their gold coin donation in our tins! Your contribution will go a long way to help future generations of children live cancer-free.
Finally, we thank Toolmart! This is always such an exciting weekend for our volunteers and staff, and we are so grateful for the great opportunity to raise funds and awareness for childhood cancer research.
