23.01.2022 On Tuesday Maree and Tash attended the launch of 140 Community Heroes, an activation at 140 Perth honouring 8 local hero's who go above and beyond to assist local organisations. HeartKids is very lucky to have their own wonderful hero, Peter. Since 2016, Peter has been travelling through regional WA selling raffle tickets and merchandise, placing donation tins in businesses and spreading the word about HeartKids. Peter is not keen to be noted as a hero, but we at HeartKids believe he is the true definition of one!! Thank you for all you do Peter, our families thank you for your wonderful support of HeartKids. If you are in the city, stop by 140 William and check out the amazing set up honouring these amazing heroes.
