CONGRATULATIONS - EVIE PINER

Grade 6 student Evie Piner,recently participated in a fund raiser for Motor Neuron Disease (MND). Her task for the fund raiser was to remain totally silent for 12 hours. This means not one word could be spoken during the vow of silence. Evie was tempted on many occasions but stood firm and succeeded in remaining totally silent for the 12 hours.

Evie participated in the fund raiser with her Aunty Trish, whose husband died from this horrible disease two years ago. In a combined effort, these two amazing people raised almost $3,000, which was the second-best amount raised in Australia.

The proceeds of the fund raising go to MND Victoria and is sent directly to patient support for those who suffer from the disease.

The St Ita’s Community is extremely proud of Evie’s efforts to support those in need.

Proud of you Poss!!!
