Sep 2009 - Building group raises funds with a Cambodian dinner

Cambodian_food

To raise funds for their forthcoming building trip, Ian & Elizabeth MacDonald,Gemma Rygate and Shayne Brown hosted two dinners at Liep's Taste of Cambodia restaurant at Cremorne.

Liep, who comes from Sisophon, has a small restaurant in Cremorne. Leip provided a wonderful Cambodian banquet and our guests all donated a minimum of $25 in addition to the cost of the dinner. One guest donated the cost of a whole house - resulting in the group increasing its target of the number of houses they will build.

The restaurant caters for up to 40 people with seating inside and outside. Other building groups in Sydney may wish to consider this as a fun way of raising some funds as well as letting people share in the pleasure of some great Cambodian cooking.

Address: 6 / 332 Military Rd Cremorne NSW 2090

Its Christmas time again and the excitement is building. For Miriam and I the excitement is tenfold for after 5 more sleeps my journey with breast cancer will be over – well, not completely, but the intensive treatment of the cancer will be finished and we can go home.  The prognosis looks good and the daunting process is no longer so daunting. We are so very thankful for that.

Fundraising for BRTD Building trip.

As part of the Tabitha Foundation Australia volunteer house-building program, Derek Dryden, owner of Better Read Than Dead is putting together a crack team of BRTD booksellers and friends of the store to build 20 houses.  Each team member must contribute the cost of a house and we still have room on our February 2010 build team for a couple of enthusiastic people with the ability to use a hammer and to actively fund-raise.
