BOURKES QUARTERLY BLOOD DONATION
The team at Bourkes gives back, here from left to right, Tim Christian, Graham Thompson, Robert Sain, Zana Nestorovska, along with Gaynor Head (not pictured)
Facts about blood donation: - Did you know blood donation is predominantly for cancer patients, in fact 34% of patients - 19% for other causes of anaemia, 18% surgical, 2% is actually for trauma victims So giving blood or plasma helps more types of people than you realise.
Lastly, with all the news in the media about our market here in Western Australia, if you are buying and selling at the same time, it is worth remembering both properties are still in the same market. Always, should you need any help with your real estate needs, give our hard working team a call.

Help me to help the Esther Foundation & Halo Espresso Cafe With your help, I am extremely proud to be able to assist two local South Perth charities - Esther Foundation and Halo Espresso Cafe.
$500 from every sale is made to these two wonderful organisations. Halo Espresso is an organisation that invests in local initiatives around the world to alleviate poverty. 100% of the profits directly support the work of Sonlife International. Esther Foundation offers a range of support programs for women’s homelessness, health, development and leadership. The Esther Foundation also operates the Esther Cafe in Como with all proceeds going towards the facilitation of the Esther Foundation programs. My clients and the customers of these two cafes share in this vision and make it possible to change people’s lives locally and around the world.
