Blue Monday

Writer's picture: Gig Buddies SydneyGig Buddies Sydney

Thanks to everyone who got decked out in black, white and blue and joined us for our charity fundraisers on Saturday - the NRL between Cronulla Sharks and New Zealand Warriors.


50 buddies joined us on the day as we appeared on the big screen, hosted our very own information tent and raised money courtesy of the match day raffle.


Thanks to our charity partner, Cronulla Sharks, for hosting us and hats off to Dean, Sarah, Bec, Adrian, Jordan and Zak - our fundraising green machines - who helped us raise over $1500.00.

Five more to go

Last Monday (19/8) we welcomed five new volunteers to the Gig Buddies Sydney family.

Thanks to Ben, Rachael, John, Laura and Alan (above L - R) for attending volunteer training. We’re looking forward to pairing you up soon.

 

Bec’s back

And finally, we’re delighted to announce that our former work experience student, Bec (below), has returned to the Gig Buddies Sydney team.

Bec is our newly appointed project officer and will initially work on a part time basis, going full time in 2020.


Welcome back, Bec.
