NOOSA Pirates Rugby League Football Club has bought the first brick to “Raise the Roof” for vulnerable women and children in Noosa.
Not-for-profit WomenKind Australia Inc. is on a mission to raise $500,000 to provide a roof over local women’s heads and is inviting clubs, businesses, individuals, corporations or organisations to help by sponsoring 100 bricks for $5,000 each.
WomenKind Australia Inc. founder, Josanne Falla, said Noosa Pirates was the first to join the “100 Club” and will have its name engraved on the brick, preserving its “generous donation for life”.
“A special thank you to Noosa Pirates Rugby League Football Club who included WomenKind into their club headquarters and allowed us to commence our 100 Club where we will ‘Raise the Roof’ for vulnerable women and children in Noosa.
“It was wonderful to be welcomed in so wholeheartedly by a bunch of burly blokes who donated generously to our cause.
“Noosa Pirates is the first brick on the build.”
Any clubs, businesses, individuals, corporations or organisations that would like to join the 100 Club to Raise the Roof on housing for our most vulnerable women and kids, please contact Josanne on 0403 181 887.
Come talk soil with Dr Sandra Tuszynska
PERMACULTURE Noosa presents soil microbiologist/mycologist Dr Sandra Tuszynska to talk about cultivating a healthy soil microbiome.
Sandra will explain how soil microbes feed, nourish, and protect plants, and introduce the key microbes in a functional soil food web essential for plant health, nutrition, resistance to pests and pathogens, and resilience to drought.
She will discuss the essential role the soil microbiome, especially soil fungi, play in the sequestration of carbon into soils, food security and detoxification of our environment.
Sandra will demonstrate how you can easily cultivate beneficial soil microbes and provide plants with a functional soil food web to support their growth.
Permaculture Noosa’s August Club Night is on 2 August from 6 pm at Cooroy Memorial Hall. Entry is free for members or $5.00 for non-members. There will be market stalls, community raffle and supper on the night.
