DYMO National Organising Week (NOW)
5-11 September 2011
Support for Brisbane Flood Victims and Volunteers
As we all know, Brisbane was badly affected by floods this year. Our hearts go out to all of the families throughout Queensland who have been affected.Three of our fabulous Organise Queensland members took part in Baked Relief, an initiative to provide fresh baked goodies to the flood victims and volunteers while they were working hard to clean up homes, businesses and surrounding streets.
We'd love to send out a fabulous "Well done!" to Louise D'Allura of The Revamp Experience, Kerri Rodley of Domestic Downsizing and Adele Blair of Blair Lifestyle Management (left to right in photograph) for baking up a storm and hitting the pavement to give out their freshly cooked goodies.
