$108,910.20 raised and every dollar has helped make a difference in our regional community.
For the past five years, the Rotary Club of Gympie Inc has hopped aboard the Mary Valley Rattler with collection buckets in hand and the generosity of our passengers has been extraordinary.
Together, an incredible $108,910.20 has been raised for local community groups and organisations and that doesn’t even include the schools and other one-off collections we’ve supported along the way.
From Friends of Amamoor and the Dagun Community Group to Meals on Wheels, Men’s and Women’s Sheds, wildlife rescue, disability services, palliative care, homelessness support, community transport and so many more.
For us, preserving Gympie’s heritage railway is about much more than keeping the wheels turning. It’s about using that railway to support the regional communities we’re proud to be part of.
To Rotary, our passengers and everyone who has dropped something into those buckets over the years - thank you. Look what you’ve helped achieve.
