http://www.trekfortimorbm.org.au/
At last the final figures are in and we are delighted to say that we have just topped the $60,000 mark. What a fantastic job you did – you are all fundraising stars. Here’s the fundraising league table at close of business on Friday. Many congratulations to the three top fundraisers for a brilliant effort. We are all so grateful for your hard work.
Our committees will be meeting soon to decide on how the funds should be spent and we will let you know, both by email and through the website. And as the projects get underway, we will be posting photographs to show the results of your tremendous efforts. Thank you all!
