Workout World at Fyshwick donation makes a difference

Local specialist fitness equipment retailer Workout World at Fyshwick recently helped raise valuable funds for the Starlight Children’s Foundation, having proudly donated a treadmill to the Foundation’s recent Canberra Star Ball which generated a staggering $288,000.

Money raised on the night will go towards Starlight programs in Canberra and surrounding regions, including Captain Starlights who bring fun and entertainment to sick kids; Starlight wish granting that provides life changing experiences, as well as Starlight Escapes, helping families enjoy a break from the everyday stresses of their child’s illness.

Workout World at Fyshwick store manager Brett Piggins says he is proud to support such a popular fundraiser which ultimately brings happiness into the lives of sick children and their families.

"As a local business we are always looking for ways to give back to the community. At Workout World at Fyshwick, we saw the Canberra Star Ball as an ideal community event to be involved with. We are thrilled that the night was such an outstanding success and we look forward to supporting the Starlight Children’s Foundation again in the future."
