Rachael's Trivia Challenge
Story
In November 2010 my friend Bruce Carey passed away aged 34 in an aged care facility and as a result my friends and I began fundraising for Youngcare. Youngcare aims to provide age appropriate care to young people with high care needs. After finding that Youngcare was being included in the Amazing People Project I decided to fundraise for this also.
The date is set for my big trivia night fundraiser. 26th August @ 7pm, Canterbury Leagues club, $25. We have had some fabulous support from the buisness community with some wonderful prizes from Dendy Cinema, Sydney Indoor Rock Climbing Gym, Drag Star, Woolworths Liquor, BWS, Australia News with magazine subscriptions, Triple J with a t-shirt and DVD pack, Harvey Norman and Myer gift cardsand RAW Anthony Nader sydney's premier hairdresser...
Some more great businesses have come forward and need a big thank you; Mitre 10 canterbury, Belvoir Theatre, Art gallery of NSW, SBS, Cricket NSW, Beach skydive, and an extra big thank you to COTY Australia for their generous donation of some great fragrances and their personal words of encouragement for my fundraising work... makes me feel excited about those wonderful people that are looking to help others in need... Thank you, Thank you.
Some more awesome prizes have rolled in: 2 family passes for the Powerhouse museum, family ticket on the cockatoo express, coffee cruise from captain cook cruises, tall ship cruise, 100 big mac vouchers donated by McDonalds...so it looks like all of those coming along will be a winner!
Still awaiting the outcome of some other prizes that have been discussed, fingers crossed!
On the night there will be raffles, games, trivia and an auction... A great night. If you are interested in attending I will be selling tickets personally and you can contact me through Facebook or leave me a message on mulley448@hotmail.com. Ticket numbers are limited.

The Amazing People Project 2011 Charity Community
There are so many amazing charities in Australia, working to do great things across all areas of our community. Choosing the right charities for The Amazing People Project was in itself quite a challenge! Everyone has a cause dear to their heart and so we tried to choose charities that would cover different categories in our community. We created the criteria that the charity needed to be Australian, able to specify what the money would go towards, be registered for tax deductions so we could receipt our sponsors, and not be primarily government funded. We wanted charities that were doing amazing things for kids, youth, care, cure/research and general community. After several months of research, talking to different charities, these are the 5 ‘amazing’ charities we chose for the 2011 Amazing People Project.
