WOZZLES Wearhouse\u2019s second Super Sale of bargain books, DVDs, clothing, toys and bric-a-brac is set for Saturday, 29 February.<\/p>\n
Raising around $1600 at their last sale, the op-shop is opening its Patanga Court processing facility again, from 9am to 3pm, to generate more funds for Child and Family Services\u2019 initiatives across the Central Highlands.<\/p>\n
Cafs CEO, Wendy Sturgess said the ongoing proceeds of Wozzles Wearhouse stores keeps the funding of many programs \u201ctopped up.<\/p>\n
\u201cSelf-funded programs fall into the Day Stay, Dad\u2019s Tool Kit, Leaving Care Mentoring program and residential care,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re always looking for funding opportunities to make these programs sustainable and to expand.\u201d<\/p>\n
Day Stay gives parenting techniques to people with a new baby, and Leaving Care Mentoring provides support and role models to young people transitioning from foster, kinship or residential care.<\/p>\n
Dad\u2019s Tool Kit assists fathers to connect and effectively communicate with their children, while young people in residential care need support around the clock.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re focussing on the sustainability of existing programs, but ideally we\u2019d like to get to a position where we can do a bit more piloting,\u201d Ms Sturgess said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not there yet, but that\u2019s our next chapter.”<\/p>\n
The sale will be undercover, and EFTPOS facilities and a coffee van are available. Parking is easily accessible onsite at 1 Patanga Court, Mitchell Park.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
