LOCAL COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Officeworks Marion hearts Mitchell Park Kindergarten As part of their community involvement, Officeworks Marion (SA) has a ongoing relationship with Mitchell Park Kindergarten and donates Print & Copy cardboard tubes and other cardboard pieces to support the kindergarten’s craft and STEM projects. To further the relationship with the kindergarten, the store team decided to use RUTMAD to give some extra support. Through the help of generous customers, the team raised $3687, enabling the kindergarten to get a new shade cloth (at a discount from another local account customer). The RUTMAD amount raised exceed total donations of the past five years. The team could not believe how much they had raised and were very proud of their efforts. The kindergarten even hung the in-store designed check on their wall and the children loved the special surprise visit from Ollie as a final celebration. When Marion had the opportunity to participate in the STEM pilot classes this winter, the Mitchell Park Kindergarten (being a STEM kindy) loved the sessions and is now looking to invest in a Sphero or two with the leftover RUTMAD money.
