Collectors needed for Red Shield Appeal 

Published on 22 May, 2003 

The final call has been sent out for collectors and drivers for this weekend's Red Shield Appeal doorknock.

Eighty people from CQU's zone have already offered their services, but more are needed.

PhotoID:884 Coordinator for the CQU event, corporate events officer Gina Yarrow said by being involved in the Appeal, CQU will highlight its community spirit and ties to the Rockhampton community.

“The community spirit of CQU is well known and will come to the fore with this event,” she said.

“I encourage all staff and students to take on this challenge and become involved as volunteers.

Anyone who may be able to collect or drive this weekend for the appeal should contact Gina Yarrow as soon as possible today.

Each team will be responsible for collecting in a certain area in the zone. Collection should take about two hours.

Saturday and Sunday May 24 and 25 are the official collection days for the Salvation Army, with the students from Capricorn College involved the following weekend of May 30 - 31.

If you wish to be involved contact Gina Yarrow today on 4923 2507 or g.yarrow@cqu.edu.au. Students can also register with the Student Association to be a volunteer.
