Multicultural Mother’s Day Fundraising Event

Celebrating Mothers and assembling Birthing Kits

Join us to honour memories and stories about our mums and help us to fold 200 Birthing Kits to send off to the Middle East and Africa (these facilitate a safer birth for women in places where hospitals are few and far between). We will also pack blankets for single mums giving birth at the Women and Children’s – you are welcome to donate a little toy for the baby, a small gift for the mum (like deodorant / body cream / a nice pair of socks) and the knitted blankets are already donated.

There will also be a chance to share a laugh with Interplay and enjoy afternoon tea delights including an Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony, Iranian Cakes and Savouries from the Kaurna home-soil!

Date and time: Sun 14 May 2023, 2:30 pm – 5 ish pm

Location: Prospect Road Uniting Church Hall, 174 Prospect Road, Prospect.

Cost: $15 per person, children under 18 free, $10 concession and donations welcome to support the important of Birthing Kit Foundation  and Zonta as we work to make a better world for all.

When Australia stopped the boats, three Afghan refugees stuck in Indonesia started a school that inspired an education revolution. This film tells their story, and our event will support their school.

After the film, Muzafar Ali and Jolyon Hoff will lead a discussion.

Funds raised will help support the Cisarua School in Indonesia.
