Trying to get some devine intervention?
FROM THE COACH:
On the 23rd of February the West Adelaide Football Team will become a labour force of reckoning. Our goal is to help renovate and rejuvenate the old Richmond Baptist Church and Community Centre. This old church is in need of our community help.
Why this project?
...
Last year I was recommended to meet Elliot Keane. He is the leader of this church community. In reflecting on our first meeting I was surprised by his youthful appearance and his sharp fashion awareness. As we spoke I was greatly impressed by his leadership and vision for the broader community.
In a voluntary role Elliot has become a very significant person at our club. His guidance and support to players and staff has been outstanding. In the last twelve months Elliot along with support of his wife Sarah has started Mothers Group Meetings and my favourite, coffee and dessert evenings. Their energy and passion for the community seems endless.
It is with great support of players, coaches and staff that we want to help Elliot and Sarah achieve their goal in supporting the development of community facilities for all to benefit from.
Already significant planning has occurred. Players with specific trade skills have become project managers. Builders (Scott Bicknell and Dustin Head), Plumbers (Aaron Anderson and Dean Poynton), Landscaping (Ryan Anderson and Shane Birss), Cabinet Maker (Ben Watkins) and they have a labour force of 50 players and staff.
How can you help?
This project has a zero budget. Understanding the significance of the above statement we are sourcing financial donations, donations of materials, goods and services in specific areas of need.
• Timber to build a pergola and new hallway
• Sand, soil, pavers and artificial grass for landscaping
• Child-proof fencing for an outdoor play area
• Paint, brushes and rollers
• A new electric hot water service
• Rubbish removal
• And possibly a lot more we haven’t thought off!
Significant preparation has already begun for the date of the 23rd of February but we cannot do it without support. Please assist us.
Our mission is to renovate this old church into a vibrant community centre for all to use. Please contact Elliot Keane directly if you can help:
elliot@richmond.org.au or mobile 0408 180 284
Elliot and I are happy to meet for any further enquiries.
All are welcome on the day.
Regards,
Andrew Collins
