A Spring Affair - Amaranth Foundation - Has Ended
DO Details
Winter is over! Grab your most colourful cocktail gear, frock or suit up, and celebrate life and the first day of Spring at the Amaranth Foundation’s major fundraiser for the year, A Spring Affair, 6.30pm for 7pm, Saturday 1 September, 2018.
Join us at the stylish Atura Hotel, 648 Dean Street, Albury for an evening of entertainment, raffles (no chooks allowed), lucky door prizes, collectables and other silent auction items. You’ll be guided through the evening in fine style by the inimitable John Walker (actor/comedian Full Frontal) and his sidekick Chris Pidd. With these two at the helm there could be a few surprises!
Atura Hotel will serve up delicious finger food accompanied by wines donated from Buller Wines, Rutherglen.
Funds from the evening will support Amaranth’s chronic illness and palliative care program which ensures people in regional and rural areas have access to Amaranth’s unique wrap around care model to meet people’s social, emotional and psychosocial needs. You can read more about the program and our other work at amaranth.org.au
Founder and CEO, Julianne Whyte’s establishment of the foundation and work in this important space was recognised when she was awarded an OAM for her services to community health through palliative care programs in January 2017. Amaranth has premises in Corowa and Wagga Wagga, with its outreach work covering centres including Albury.
Money raised from the silent auction supports the Trevor Davis Pay It Forward Community Compassionate Fund. This was established Trevor Davis’s family in partnership with the Amaranth Foundation to provide practical support including meals and gardening, as well as vital counselling support.
So, shake off the Winter blues and join us for A Spring Affair!
