October 10 is also World Mental Health Day - and what better way to remove that brain fog and clear your mind than by getting out amongst nature in the fresh air, or as least into your backyard, and completing as many steps as you can. To participate in the Neora Mind, Body & Paws Walk, simply donate a minimum of $50 to the Neora Ripple Foundation, before September 30, 2021* to recieve an event pack donated by Neora! *You can still register right up until the day, you just may not have your registration pack in time. We encourage you to still take part in the walk and be in the running for amazing prizes!

Operation Christmas Child Donations
Every physical shoebox that we put together for Operation Christmas Child has an associated shipping cost. Instead of, or as well as donating items, you may also like to help us deliver these boxes to children in need by contributing to the shipping costs. We are estimating that we will have approximately 60 boxes to send this year, which is great but we will also need to raise $1400 to cover the shipping cost and 'The Greatest Journey' course. Your donation towards this cost would be very much appreciated.
The Rarh Foundation Inc.
We are raising money for a primary school and women's teacher training centre in a very poor and remote part of India. Currently, there is no indoor kitchen, only one indoor toilet, no retaining wall, no mosquitos nets and no indoor shower. Additionally, food is stored on boxes in the floor, allowing the influx of rodents and other pests. We hope to change all that. There are several children and young adults living at the centre who are in dire need of assistance. Please consider helping out with a regular (monthly or weekly) donation or even a one-off amount. Your generosity is deeply appreciated and goes a long, long way.

The College will be providing a steak sandwich for all staff and students at lunch with donations collected by our College Prefects as the community enter into Lennon Hall for our first College Assembly for 2022 in the morning.

Brisbane Tango Orchestra Support Fund
Music is a public good. It is essential for the well-being of our communities. The BTO originally formed to fill the gap in the local music scene as there are no large tango orchestras based in Brisbane or Queensland, despite having a large and dedicated tango dance community. Unlike the many smaller tango ensembles that exist, the BTO is not commercially viable on its own. Just like symphony orchestras, museums and libraries, we need funding beyond ticket sales to be sustainable and to ensure artists are fully remunerated. We rely on the generous philanthropical support from music lovers like you to be able to bring this unique project to as many people as possible. To show our gratitude, donations will be acknowledged on our website. If you would like to discuss a partnership, please contact us at brisbanetangoorchestra@gmail.com.
