One thought on “Fundraising Casting Day

    What a great day this was! 8 families, 11 beautiful children, 28 casts created and just over $1200 raised. We had 2 of our volunteers in training, Ya and Jenny and they were awesome with Josie taking them under her wing. They are hoping to join our casting team and create beautiful memories for bereaved parents. Jess was great at welcoming families in and dealing with the admin for the day. I had to get my thinking cap on the night before knowing that one family had requested a 'family cast' but weren't sure how they wanted it. I grabbed my hubby for a quick test run of one idea and tried it for real at this event. I am thrilled to say it worked and I can't wait to see this all put together ready to give to the family. Photos will be posted when they are all ready in a few weeks. Thanks everyone for coming along and making this event so successful. And for those who haven't got casts of their children - watch out for our next event coming soon.
