Rotary Christmas Trailer Raffle.
Morayfield, QLD
 
We are thrilled to have been chosen to partner with the Rotary Club of Caboolture again this year in running their 2021 Christmas Trailer Raffle. Each year the Rotary Club put together an amazing prize pool and we get to share in the profits. As most of you know, this ONE raffle each year will pay for all of our 'mandatory' expenses like bank fees, audit fees, insurances etc. The success of this one fundraiser ensures we can continue to donate 100% of our donations for the rest of the year.
WE NEED YOU TO HELP MAKE THIS RAFFLE A SUCCESS!!

Stephen Bird Photography Fundraiser

Our incredibly talented committee member, Stephen Bird (pictured above), has generously put together a fundraiser selling his photography prints. Each month, starting October 2021, he will be releasing another image at a special price with profits going to HPI as a donation towards furnishing the school dormitory in Kashekuro, Uganda.

This month’s featured image comes from Cape Schanck on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia, and captures Pulpit Rock and Devil’s Table in the light of a fading sunset. A new print will be uploaded at the beginning of each month on our socials and website so be sure to set a reminder, there is guaranteed to be something for everyone's taste.

Please help us spread the word of this fundraiser by sharing our social media and website posts on your local community page and to your friends & family. What a fantastic gift idea for Christmas!

Shepherd's Arms Children's Home.
Bohol, Philippines
 

The children at SACH remain safe, happy and healthy during the global pandemic. They have recently participated in Sportfest (pictured) as part of their Homeschooling to promote teamwork and physical activity. The laying hens are going strong (pictured) and we've had a volunteer dentist come to provide dental check ups for all of the children. We are so blessed to have the facility to do this onsite.

After a great response to last months newsletter update and call out for sponsors. I'm happy to announce that Jeremiah (above left) has started a TAFE course, studying Agriculture and Joubert (above right) has started at University, studying a Bachelors degree in Civil Engineering.
