Red Cross Calling Fundraiser

On Friday, March 31st, 40 students across all Year levels gathered at South Melbourne Market to participate in the first Mac.Rob Red Cross Calling since 2019! Split into two shifts, the morning and afternoon, students teamed up together in groups of 3-4 to collect donations from wandering pedestrians to raise funds for the Red Cross.

Whether it was our meaningful conversations with ex-Mac.Robbians, sharing a smile with kind pedestrians, or even buying a delicious croissant from the nearby bakery, Red Cross Calling was a truly unforgettable experience for all students. We were so happy to be able to reignite the volunteering spirit within each student after the pandemic and engage with our wonderful community for a great cause.

Overall as a team, we were able to raise a total of $892! All funds will be donated to the Red Cross, an organisation dedicated to protecting the life and health of so many Australians, whether it be from helping the homelessness or providing vital services and resources before, during and after emergencies. If you would like to donate to this wonderful cause, a link to their website is found here.
