BREC championing access to the arts for children in the South West through fundraiser

The Bunbury Regional Entertainment Centre are championing the right for all children in the South West to experience programs which facilitate creativity and the arts through their annual fundraiser.

To carry out their vision, BREC are fundraising through an Annual Giving Campaign in the hope of raising $30,000 by June 30.

With the haul sitting at just over $11,600, they are appealing for the community for donations — which would fund programs and experiences for children and families across all socio-economic brackets.

BREC relationship development committee chair Jackie Ross said she was excited to continue BREC’s mission with the campaign.

“Our focus for this year’s Annual Giving Campaign is supporting young people to experience the performing arts firsthand, through attendance at subsidised and age-appropriate performances at BREC,” she said.

“The BREC team, staff and volunteers are working tirelessly to make this vision a reality.

“Financial support from the community will give the team increased flexibility and leverage to obtain high quality productions and offset the cost to schools and patrons.

“We have set ourselves the goal of raising $30,000 and getting 3000 young people to experience all that BREC has to offer in the next 12 months.”

As BREC is a not-for-profit organisation and registered charity, all donations over $2 are tax deductible.
