Spencer Spirit
Spencer Travel donates 50c per invoice to The Bear Cottage
Bear Cottage is dedicated to
- Caring for children with terminal illnesses and their families in a home like environment where they can stay and receive rest and medical care.
- Ensuring that the families of terminally ill children are supported and encouraged to be part of the Bear Cottage community.
Bear Cottage is an initiative of the Children’s Hospital at Westmead.
The Spencer Staff have visited Bear Cottage and volunteer their time in helping with Christmas and any other events they can assist and support.
Spencer Travel's donation has gone towards financing the Mothers Support Camp which is being held from 17th August. Six mothers who have a young child with a terminal illness will meet - sometimes for the first time - with other mothers.There will be trips to the beauty salon, lunch by the sea, a special trip to the movies. They bring their ill child who will be looked after by the nurses and play therapist.. These camps cost around $10,000 for the week and Spencer Travel have presented a cheque to Bear Cottage August 2008 to help with these camps.
In-between packing clients off on Christmas travels, we’re packing gift hampers for the elderly and under-privileged. (pic)
