ROYAL FLYING DOCTORS SERVICE FUNDING PARTNERSHIP WITH ROTARY CLUB OF WEST PERTH TRUST
Dear Members and Supporters,
The Rotary Club of West Perth and the RCWP Trust have joined as an “RFDS Champion” with Royal Flying Doctors Service (RFDS) to support their Street Appeal and Awareness Day on 14th May 2021 with an innovative plan to raise funds for the RFDS Flying Doctor Day on Monday 17th May 2021. Flying Doctor Day celebrates the anniversary of the first RFDS flight 93 years ago on the 17 May 1928.
From 1st to the 14th May your tax-deductible donations to the Royal Flying Doctors Service through the RCWP Trust Account will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $15,000. The RCWP Trust will donate the total contribution to the RFDS Flying Doctor Day Appeal.
Donations made to this appeal will be similarly matched dollar-for-dollar by RFDS Matched Giving Partners (Rio, CBH and IGO) further doubling the contribution! We are working together to turn $1 into $4.
Your donation will go towards purchasing essential equipment and developing a Training Centre of Excellence to ensure their teams can remain experts in their field with consistent training and development opportunities.
Donations are to be made to the RCWP Trust
