2014 FRRR Sidney Myer ‘Back to School’  Program

Our 2014 Back to School program was an outstanding success, delivering much needed support in the form of  school supplies to families in need. With funding from the national program, Aurizon Community Fund, the Stan and Maureen Duke Foundation and Carroll’s Newsagency,  we were able to distribute over 960 $50 Carrolls News vouchers to 36 schools throughout the region. Gauging from the comments provided by the participating  schools in our program evaluation, the ‘Back to School’  program is very much appreciated with noted benefits for individual students, families & teachers.
