Hello all you marvelous people.... here is something you could do for us... What we are seeking support for is the World Refugee Day event.... held every year here in Darwin, Melaleuca, in conjunction with the Refugee Council of Australia organizes a World Refugee Day Festival for World Refugee Week. The event aims to highlight the importance of refugee issues and celebrate the resilience, talents and achievements of people with refugee backgrounds. There is a reason this is important and that is because: - It draws attention to refugee issues, - promotes respect towards the refugee population, - It is also a healing experience for many who have experienced trauma and Torture. - and most of all to celebrate the many amazing contributions that the refugee community make to Australian society. World Refugee Day showcases and celebrates some of these contributions, through incredible performances, inspiring workshops, crafts, food and a multicultural soccer competition. Each year the event relies on external funds to make the day a success. These funds go toward paying performers, running workshops, coordinating food and stalls, equipment, promotion and marketing. Through GoFundraise we hope to raise $15,000. We would be grateful for any contribution large or small to go toward making this important event a success. All donations made over $2 are tax deductable. if you cannot donate how about sharing this for us....... every tiny bit counts and remember mother Theresa said something to the effect that if you cant feed 100, then just feed one!
