As part of the Grill’d Local Matters Program, We are hosting a fundraising dinner event for AWSOM Project at Grill’d Leederville!
If you don’t already know, the current statistics show that 32 children drown in Vietnam each DAY, which equates to 11,680 children losing their lives each year due to not being taught adequate water safety skills or learning how to swim. AWSOM (Australian Water Safety on the Mekong) Project strives to minimise this statistic by implementing and paying forward our Australian water safety knowledge to those in living along the Mekong river in Vietnam. Each year a team of swim instructors head over to Vietnam to run swimming lessons and education clinics, something Abbey and I have had the amazing opportunity to be a part of. AWSOM Project also sponsors Vietnamese children with disabilities to receive weekly swimming lessons each year to continue the progression of their swimming. ♀️
We could talk forever about the aaaamazing things that AWSOM project does, but instead we would love for you all to raise some more funds for these amazing children & people in Vietnam!
