Winter Pj’sTaking the kids shopping can be trying, but what better way to make your shopping day more enjoyable than participating in some of the activities your local shopping center puts on. This Saturday 21st May all Westfield centres throughout Australia are hosting a major national fundraising event Give Ability Day. Many Westfield shopping centres will have a variety of activities for the kids to participate in such as, train rides, animal farms, face painting, plus many more (vary at each centre). This would be a great chance for the kids to have a bit of fun as you all shop together for your winter supplies. By visiting on Saturday and participating in some of the activities, you can show your ability to give and support children with disabilities and their families in your local community.
About Give Ability:
Sadly, 1 in 14 Australian children live with a disability. Caring for a child can be tough and very challenging. While every child is a joy to their parents, families of children with a disability find simple everyday living more difficult. Financial assistance, respite care – time out and community support can make a world of difference.
Give Ability focuses on what we can all do to help enable children with disabilities and their families. We all have ‘give ability’ – the ability to donate what we can to help give the ability for kids to take part in fun activities, for respite care so parents and carers can take a break too, or for new programs and facilities to be set up. Give Ability helps to facilitate people supporting people in the community.
Every Westfield centre across Australia has a close partnership with a local children’s disability service provider in their community, giving people the opportunity to make a difference to families in their local areas.
