Revamp Op Shop’s $10,000 donation

The Corowa-Wahgunyah Good Friday Appeal is run by local area managers Karie Playford, Ali Playford and Lauren Bath, who are incredibly grateful for the ongoing and generous support of the Revamp Op Shop, their hardworking team of volunteers and the Corowa Presbyterian Church.

Karie said funds raised by the Good Friday Appeal provide equipment, training, research, and patient and family-centred care programs to the Royal Children’s Hospital, providing patients with world class care.

“It is the major specialist paediatric referral hospital for patients from the Corowa Wahgunyah district,” she said.

Revamp Op Shop is overseen by the Corowa Presbyterian Church. It is managed by Florence Hudson and run by a team of volunteers.

Funds raised by the Op Shop are used to fund church programs or are donated to charities. Karie received the big $10,000 cheque last week and, together with the Op Shop volunteers, said: “It’s a wonderful amount and for such a worthy cause.”
