IT’S always good to give a little back.
And last Saturday at Westfield Fountain Gate a group of volunteers did just that, raising more than $13,600 for local partner Yooralla for GiveAbility Day in support of families of children living with disabilities.
All 39 Westfield centres across Australia hosted GiveAbility Day for a charity of their choice.
Shoppers were treated to a range of fun-filled activities for GiveAbility Day at Fountain Gate including face painting, donut decorating, Thomas the Tank Engine rides and a baby animal petting zoo.
News photographer Rob Carew was on the scene to capture all the action!
