Hands for Health, held on the 11th of march, was a complete success.  Period.

The PSA raised $819.70 for the day, all of which will go to the Alfred burns unit and help the unfortunate bushfire victims of Black Saturday.

Congratulations to all those involved, and a big thank you to Kirby, Marty, Alex, Lachy and Luke who did a stellar job organising the event.  Also, another thankyou to those who donated their time and magic hands to such a worthy cause.  Finally, to those who received massages and donated;  thankyou and come back next year!

Don’t forget that you can all still contribute to the cause by raising money at home/work by massaging friends and taking their details for a tax deduction (if they want). All forms and money to be collected before the 9th of April - speak to a PSA rep for more details or email us at admin@latrobepsa.com
