The Les Twentyman Foundation is thrilled to announce that this year’s Officeworks Make a Difference Appeal has raised a fantastic $67,180.14!
Our heartfelt thanks go to Brett Metherall and the incredibly motivated Officeworks team serving the western region of Melbourne. Through their dedication and the generosity of their customers, this remarkable donation will enable the Les Twentyman Foundation to continue providing vital support to at-risk and vulnerable young people who are unable to afford schoolbooks and other educational necessities.
In recent years, the Officeworks western region has become a highly valued partner of the Les Twentyman Foundation. To Brett, Kris, and every staff member involved in this incredible campaign, including the Officeworks Support Office staff at Chadstone, we sincerely thank you on behalf of the young people we work with and walk alongside.
During the current national cost of living crisis, these much-needed funds will go towards our Back-to-School Program, helping the Foundation provide essential support to at-risk youth in our community and keeping them engaged in their education.
n the 2023/24 our Back-to-School program supported 778 students, marking a 40.18% increase from the previous year’s 555 students. This substantial growth underscores our commitment to broadening our reach and providing critical educational resources to more students each year, further reinforcing the program’s increasing demand in the current economic environment.
Thank you to Officeworks for your commitment to helping us change young lives for the better. Your support is invaluable, and we are grateful to have you walking alongside the Les Twentyman Foundation.
