Drought Relief for Kids Fundraiser
Donation protected
Having witnessed the significant hardship that farmers, their families and the greater communities of the North West Slopes Region are going through at the moment, we believe it is time for Race Revolution, it's entrants, sponsors, volunteers and the general public to do something to help. The North West Slopes is one of the most hardest hit areas, being affected by the current drought crisis.
A lot of money is currently being raised by TV shows, newspaper's and corporate entities to buy feed and water for farmers cattle, yet the people of the wider community seem to have been forgotten, especially children from farming families.
Children in these hard hit areas are starting to miss out on meals, showers, school trips/activities, and even getting to school from rural areas, as the money for the school bus is going to cattle feed, water and other necessities. This fundraiser is not just about about the children of farmers themselves, but the children in the community who's parents have lost work due to the crisis on farms as well.
We have partnered with the Namoi Valley Partners in Learning Group to raise a minimum of $10,000 for the children to go towards reducing the cost of school activities. This will assist to take pressure off these families so they can concentrate on getting through this tough time.
The Namoi Valley Partners in Learning Group is made up of 12 local schools in the region, that are directly noticing issue's with the children such as those listed above. We will be raising these funds over the next 4 weeks, as well as conducting a gold coin donation collection at our race day (Race Revolution) at Gunnedah Airport on Saturday 1st September 2018.
Through this partnership with the Namoi Valley Partners in Learning, we can be rest assured that the funds are going directly back into the local community instead of being sent elsewhere in Australia.
All funds will go directly to the Namoi Valley Partners in Learning (group of 12 local schools), with the exception of fees automatically deducted by 'Go Fund Me' themselves.
About Us: Race Revolution is a Half Mile Motorsport Event relocating to Gunnedah in September 2018. For further information see our website www.racerevolution.com.au or Facebook Page 'Race Revolution'.
Thank you to everyone for donating.
