1-30 June 2015

We’ve been selected to participate in Local Matters at Grill’d Norwood this June! Local Matters is the Grill’d community donation program that sees each Grill’d restaurant donate $500 back into the community every month. The donation is split between 3 local community groups $300 / $100 / $100.

HOW YOU CAN HELP?
We’d love your support in receiving the highest $300 donation! Simply head to Grill’d Norwood during June, for a burger and pop your Local Matters token in our jar. The group with the most tokens at the end of the month receives the largest donation.

It’s a simple (and delicious) way to show your support! You’ll find us on a jar at Grill’d Norwood, Parade Central Cnr the Parade & George St, Norwood.

Sunday 28 June, Norwood Town hall 10am - 5pm

The 'Art from the Heart' Exhibition will feature artworks from over 300 students on the theme of 'Gratitude'. These creations will be offered for sale by donation, with all proceeds going to support schools and educational programs in rural India. The exhibition will also feature 16 local artists who have generously donated a piece of their own artwork for our Silent Auction.

Please come to our ‘Art from the Heart’ Exhibition and support these amazing students and local artists to make a difference to others in the world. More info here.

On Thursday 18 June, we hired the Regal Theatre (on Kensington Rd) to hold a special Movie Night Fundraiser.  Many of the classes involved in the Schools Connect Program  presenting reflections about Gratitude through a min-movie or PowerPoint... and they got to show it on the theatre's big screen! What an exciting opportunity!

Thank you to all who attended x

WOW... its June already and what a month we have planned, with 4 exciting fundraising events coming up soon...

Due to the amazing generosity of 16 local South Australian Artists – 18 paintings/ photographs (each with a theme on gratitude) have been donated to the Help-A-School Foundation for the exhibition in June. This is truly incredible and reveals the beautiful heart-centred souls of our local artists. I am totally inspired by them all.

These artworks will be used to raise funds through a silent auction process in the weeks leading up to our 'Gratitude in Art' exhibition in June. Check out the artist's profiles page.

I send much gratitude and love to all these amazing artists who have opened their heart to supporting this program xxx
