Shake a tin for Telethon

All Junior Football Clubs are invited to take part in fundraising activities for Telethon as part of the Shake a tin for Telethon initiative.

A number of Junior Sports in Western Australia have joined forces, through the WA Sports Federation, to raise money for Telethon as a way of ‘Kids raising money for kids’. Clubs are encouraged to hold a fundraising activity over the weekend of July 26th and 27th as a means of fundraising for Telethon.

How will it work?
Fundraising activities can be determined by individual sports clubs and held anytime over the weekend of 26 & 27 July 2014. WASF and Telethon will provide promotional material and fundraising ideas to clubs. Once a club has registered for the event, all relevant information including various fundraising ideas and handy hints for promoting the fundraiser will be emailed to them. The fundraiser can be as simple as proceeds from a sausage sizzle, general club donations or loose change from the kiosk.

Clubs can register their interest at http://www.wasportsfed.asn.au/shake-a-tin-for-telethon

Where does the money go?
Your club will help the kids of WA! Telethon supports the medical and social welfare of children and young people. Funds raised will further research into children’s diseases, establish new facilities, provide counselling and support services for children and young people as well as purchase life-saving medical equipment.
