Charity Photo Exhibition

To thank the Nunawading community for their support and patience and to benefit local charity Reach Out for Kids Foundation (ROK), the Springvale Road Rail Separation Project will host a charity auction in late January.

Among the items being auctioned are professionally produced photos of the Springvale Road Rail Separation Project, by award-winning local photographer Noel Butcher.

A sample of the photos will be exhibited in two Nunawading locations prior to the event.

• Rosaria’s Café, 151 Springvale Rd – Monday 14 December to Wednesday 23 December 2009
• Station Street Café, 26 Station St – Monday 4 January to Friday 22 January 2010

All money raised will go to help Reach Out for Kids continue to provide vital services to the local community.
Reach Out for Kids is a not-for-profit organisation based in Nunawading providing innovative services to local children, young people and families focusing on early intervention and prevention.
