“The future of music in the Illawarra is in good hands from what I saw over the weekend. Yesterday we showcased some of the bravest and keenest little muso’s the Illawarra has to offer at our mid year concert. So many family and friends turned up in support dispute the freezing conditions which was awesome to see and Blessie Pica and Michael Allison ran it like pro’s! Very proud of the students for having a crack and for our awesome team for doing such a great job! Special thanks to Seth and his truck, our teachers at Haworth Music School and Beau Thatcher and the team KidzWish! For most of these students it was their first ever performance so it was great to see so many keen little muso’s having a go.” - Glenn, KidzWish supporter

Take a look inside the new KidzWish Place in Flinders. This state-of-the-art facility will provide much-needed respite/therapy/fun for children and teenagers who are sick, disadvantaged or have a disability. It is being constructed with a variety of support from the Federal, NSW, Shellharbour Governments, a large number of very generous designers, consultants, suppliers and our generous Illawarra community. But we still need more help!

Michael Allison is a big supporter of KidzWish and he's passionate about helping children of all abilities. His team are presenting its Mid Year Showcase this Sunday at @haworthmusicschool. Performances from students & teachers, food stalls, raffles and lots of giveaways. Michael is donating all funds raised from the event to the new KidzWish Place. Thank you for all the support!

Our community is the best! So grateful to everyone who signed up a KidzWish Day fundraiser this month. Lake Illawarra Police District District and the South Coast Police District had a three-all draw, as part of the Steve Johnson Memorial Charity Soccer Match. The event was held in honour of late Chief Inspector Steve Johnson. We were lucky enough to have a good amount raised for the new KidzWish Place! Total coming soon.

A big thank you to the Jettys by the Lake  community for choosing us as their charity. Every dollar matters when helping us build a new KidzWish Place.

Right now Beth leads the way. She just made her $Dollar Deal. Simply donate $1 or $1 for each family member and then make a wish. Make your EOFY tax donation and then share a selfie with a dollar by tagging #dollardealwish to help spread the word. Link in bio.

"One of the greatest gifts you can give is your time." Our volunteers had a fantastic time shaking money buckets at the @foragersmarket! Huge thanks to the stalls for their help in raising awareness on the day. The team raised $1,460 in 5 hours - how awesome is that?!

We were painting the @foragersmarket orange on Sunday. Once again a massive thanks to our orange army of volunteers who helped shake money buckets.
