This month, the Calwell, Curtin, Jerrabomberra, and Wanniassa Community Bank® branches (Bendigo Bank) advised that Missing School was successfully nominated to receive a 100 Community Heroes Grant. The grant, worth $1000, is targeted to running an event in the ACT for families, educators, health practitioners and researchers — hopefully the first of others around Australia — called “Keeping Seriously Sick Kids Connected”. The 100 Community Heroes Campaign is a way of showing support for community groups like MissingSchool who are out there making a difference every day.
