Helping Out In WA- Toys Wanted!

WA TOY DRIVE TO HELP VICTORIA'S YOUNG BUSH FIRE VICTIMS PLAY TO HEAL

A second Christmas for children affected by the bush fires in regional Victoria is being organised by Western Australia based kids cross-media company, artistsAWAKEproductions. While current relief focuses on providing basic services like food, clothing, shelter, and medical aid to people affected by the disaster, we are calling upon the people of WA to help provide for the special needs of children. The "Play to Heal" Initiative was commenced after consulting with Government and Non-Government Organisations in Victoria to ensure donations would help the victims and could be distributed without diverting resources from critical needs.

The donations of new or near-new toys and games for ages 0 to 10 are being collected from two locations:

13 Glyde Street, Mosman Park (Mosman Video) - 9 to 15 February

7 Amersham Crescent, East Butler (East Butler Primary School) - 9 to 13 February (last collection 3pm TODAY)

It is important that toys and games be in new or excellent condition and not too large or heavy so they can be easily shipped. Donations should not require electricity and batteries should be included if necessary. Ideal items include board games, deflated sports balls, soft toys, cards, pads of paper and crayons/pencils.

For more information about the toy drive, please email: info@artistsawake.com
