Variety 3AW RADIOTHON

Donate $200 now to give a bike to a disadvataged child

For eight years running 3AW listeners have opened their hearts and wallets to give disadvantaged children the gift of a bike in time for ChristmasThursday July 22nd sees us return to 3AW for the 8th annual 3AW Variety Radiothon.

This year we will be setting up the phone room at 3AW's new headquarters in Media House Docklands. On air from midday to midnight, we have plenty of call for volunteers to man the phones so contact the office and register your assistance janetteconnolly@varietyvic.org.au

To make you a donation contact Siobhan in the office OR donate online

Every donation is welcome and donations of $200 or more will entitle the donor to personally present a bike to a deserving child. This will take place at a series of events throughout Victoria in the lead-up to Christmas. The children concerned are identified by local welfare and support agencies and their names provided to Variety. In 2009 1,120 bikes were donated by the people of Melbourne.
