Dancers at Kristen’s Dance Studio during their fundraising week for Redtember.
Kristen’s Dance Studio in Forbes raised $350 during its Redtember dress up week to raise money for Ronald McDonald House charities.
The money will go directly to the Ronald McDonald House in Orange, which is a vitally important haven for families from Forbes and Parkes needing medical care.
Parkes tops the list of families using the facility in Orange with 195 families using 1,412 room nights. This equates to accommodation savings of $211,000 for families. Forbes is second with 91 families using 410 room nights, with accommodation savings of $62.800. Condo and Cowra both had 89 families using the facility, Dubbo 44 families, Mudgee 39, Grenfell 36, Cobar 21, Young 18 and Canowindra 17 families.
Redtember runs throughout September, supporting families who need to stay at RMHC Central West NSW. Any fundraising effort is welcomed.
