Toys Wanted For Kids In Need
Keira at last year’s run with local MBMMC president Moose and club member Stevo, along with a giant teddy kindly donated by an RBSS student.
You may recall our article in January on our local lass with a huge heart, Keira Powers, who organised for her school to be a collection point for donations for the annual Christmas Toy Run.
Well, caring Keira is back at it again this year and hopes the community can help her gather as many toys, games, and even gift cards as possible for children in need this Christmas.
These will then be distributed throughout the region by the Military Brotherhood Military Motorcycle Club Cooloola-Sunshine Coast sub branch on 10 December.
All bikes and cars are welcome to join the Club on their run. Meet at 8am for a 9am start at Gympie Gold Museum, returning 12 noon to Nelson Park for sausage sizzle and cold drinks.
Keira and her friend Oscar, both students at Rainbow Beach State School, have arranged for donations to be collected at the school again this year.
Please make sure toys, games, and other items are in good condition. Gift cards are also accepted. And keep in mind that gifts for 12-15 year olds are usually low, so try to consider that age group as well.
Drop offs can be made during school hours (8.30am-2.30pm) to the Rainbow Beach State School office. Deadline for donations is Friday 9 December.
Contact Keira on 0491 045 753 for more information.
