Fund Raising Concert

Concert Fundraiser

We have some exciting news. We were contacted some time ago by Australian born, German based musician Geordie Little who wanted to know if we were interested in hosting a concert at the Nymboida Hall. Geordie will be touring and promoting his latest album from Adelaide to Byron Bay in October/November so we jumped at the chance and talked with the local Community Group, NCGI, as well as some of our wonderful local musicians Tommy Feather and Annie & Al, to turn it into a great night.

When and Where

6:00pm Friday 4th November at Nymboida Hall. A buffet will be available with yummy food donated by locals to help us raise funds for the various projects we support in Cambodia and NCGI. 

Bookings

Bookings are essential for catering purposes.
Tickets are $10 per head. Buffet dinner $10 per head.
You can book by contacting Toni on 6643 4263 or via email

Donated Meals

If any locals want to help with a donated meal for the buffet, please contact Toni on 6649 4263 or via email

Cambodia Visit

As a reminder, we will be visiting Cambodia in February 2017 along with one of our long term donors. Its really exciting to be able to share our projects with our donors to reinforce that the donations are really making a difference.  Its not only important for us to see how the projects we support are going but also to catch up with the teachers, families and students that we support.
If any of our supporters would like to tag along on the trip with us just let us know.

Lips 'n Sync a huge success

We were quite nervous before the event, as usual. We worry about getting the number of people required to make the effort of running the event worthwhile, whether we'll have enough food and if people will enjoy the evening. In hindsight we could have saved ourselves the concern because the night was such a fantastic success.

Lips 'n Sync

The acts for this year were:

• Meatloaf's 'Paradise by the Dashboard light', Trevor and Toni
• Tiny Tim by Bob Warner, tip toeing so gracefully, 

Bob tiptoeing gracefully !

• Our very own twisted Laena covering Joni Mitchell's Twisted 

The effervescent Laena !

• And the fabulous Rick and Phil as the equally fabulous Sonny and Cher.

Jumble Sale, Sunday 21 June

Jumble Fund Raising Sale This Sunday 21 June

Donations of items to Raise Funds

We have been collecting items for the sale over the last few months and our verandah has been a mine field of trip hazards but we will be transporting all of the donated items to the hall during this week. You can still drop goods off at our house, or we can collect them from you.   Please contact Toni p: 6649 4263 or e: cookie1616@gmail.com if you want to help with donations.

Sale Day

We will be having the jumble sale in conjunction with the Nymboida Market on 21 June a the Nymboida Community Hall. In years past our jumble sale has attracted a large number of people and with the regular crowd who enjoy the market for the social aspect this should benefit not just us but the stall holders as well.

We hope to see you there !
