Adopt-A-Beast raises funds for farmers

Adopt-A-Beast’s recent garage sale was a huge success, with many many items donated and sold and $1080 raised.

We are looking forward to holding another garage sale next year.

Donations of your unwanted clutter will begin in January, for more details contact Nathalie on 0475 747 689.

Our Christmas raffle for 2022 was another wonderful success, with over 380 tickets sold and over $1000 raised. I would like to send out a huge thank you to everyone that purchased tickets to support our cause.

I would also like to thank the following businesses: Repco Southside, Toyworld, Galactic Donuts, Giant, Supercheap, Peter Ceola, Shades of Beauty, Advanced Exhaust, Gracemere Shopping World, CQ Today and finally Gracemere RSL for holding our draw on 16 December.

The lucky winners of our draw are: first prize R. Hoffman, second prize D. Heidrich and third prize D. Bursi.

Thank you again to everyone, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe happy New Year.

Adopt-a-Beast is a not-for-profit charity that helps farmers restock and replenish herds during times of natural disasters.
