Recent fundraising and community engagement >
A 'hole' lot of funds
A record-breaking year saw the RFDS Port Lincoln Auxiliary raise more than $200,000 for the Flying Doctor through a range of community engagements and activities in the Eyre Peninsula.
The Auxiliary’s iconic Flying Donut van sold more than 38,000 donuts, on top of members’ efforts through sausage sizzles, events and silent auctions.
The fundraising tally was also boosted by a very generous $61,000 donation from Southern Eyre Trailers, who auctioned off a trailer dolly for the benefit of the RFDS.
A glamorous Clare affair
More than 300 guests gathered at the Clare Valley Aerodrome for the inaugural RFDS Clare Support Group Ball to dine and dance the night away.
The event coincided with the Clare Support Group’s 70th anniversary, a history almost as long as the Flying Doctor itself.
With more than $26,000 raised on the night, thanks to all those who gave generously to help keep the Flying Doctor flying.
Good tidings
Thank you to our South Australian donors and volunteers who joined us for a special morning tea in the lead-up to Christmas.
Longtime RFDS volunteer Russell Duncan OAM and major donor Bill Williams were invited on stage to talk about their ongoing support, before the crowd was treated with carols and tunes from the City of Adelaide Concert Band – a performance courtesy of a generous donation from an anonymous RFDS supporter.
A book for Ziggy
It's been more than a year since SA farmer Brook Seal released his children's book Just like you, only a little more different and so far it’s raised more than $3,000 for the Flying Doctor!
Written for his son, the heartwarming story raises awareness about inclusion, kindness and living with disability, with all proceeds going towards the RFDS.
