Matilda and Bailey all set up selling their bracelets.
Parkes Can Assist has received a donation of $379 from two young girls, Matilda and Bailey from Trundle. The girls had a twofold plan to honour their Pop and say “thank you” to Can Assist for the financial support their Pop received from Can Assist during his illness. The girls took the initiative to make and sell bracelets to raise the money.
Can Assist are very proud of Matilda and Bailey and thank them for their support of our organisation. We also thank the people of Trundle who supported the girls in purchasing the bracelets. Well done girls.
Fund raising is critical to the success of Can Assist to financially support local people with cancer.The Parkes Branch operates a shop at 33 Court Street that is entirely supported by community donations.
Our very generous and supportive communities keep us supplied with a vast array of items needed to run a household including fine china, collectables, jewellery, books, electrical and the best supplier of craft and haberdashery supplies. Household furniture is available at our shop at the showground. Purchasing second-hand items is sustainable and environmentally-friendly.
Can Assist has a team of wonderful volunteers who cater and coordinate wakes, run Bingo, street stalls and raffles.
Can Assist couldn’t operate without our fantastic volunteers and all the work they do. We are always looking for volunteers in all our three fund raising areas. A special call out to any men who have some spare time and can volunteer for 4 hours a day one or two per week. Drop into the furniture shed or our shop for more information. Can Assist opens Tuesday to Friday 9am–1pm, and Saturdays 9am–12.30pm.
