Junior footballers raise money for radio lollipop
24 January 2010  

During the off season the “Straddie Sharks 2009 Under 11’s rugby league side” and The Twort Family have been shaking donation tins on Stradbroke Island where the Big Red Cat and the Stadbroke Ferries dock at Dunwich on Stradbroke Island raising much needed funds for Radio Lollipop.

Radio Lollipop has just received a donation of $1106.40 that has started our 2010 fundraising with a blast.

Our sincere thanks go to all involved for giving up their Summer Saturday’s to raise money for other children not so fortunate as themselves and also to The Big Red Cat Vehicle Ferry and Stradbroke Island Ferries for allowing the parents and children to collect money from the holiday makers visiting Stradbroke Island for a summer holiday.

We hope to keep this relationship with the Junior Rugby League side and Under 12’s team this year as well as the Twort Family to assist with continued fundraising activities for 2010.

Special thanks to Peter Twort and his family who first approached us after meeting one of our volunteers when his son was in hospital to assist our organization to raise funds.

We wish the Straddie Sharks U12’s team all the very best for your upcoming 2010 season.
