Thursday Girls help students

Local charity group The Thursday Girls met on 30 September at The Boathouse after a two month break due to Covid restrictions.

A spokeswoman for the group said it was exciting to see so many of their regular ladies and also welcome 16 new members.

Due to many of the school activities not able to be held this year, the group has only been able to give out $11,000 in donations.

As the year comes into the final term there will be many requests for help for students to attend camps and swimming lessons.

The Thursday Girls are always there to help those students at the State Schools in the Noosa Shire whose families are in financial difficulty.

The next function will be held at Rococo Noosa on 28 October and then the final function on 18 November at the RACV Resort where partners will also be invited.

Any woman interested in joining may call Liz Meikle on 0457 844 848 or email ttgnoosa@gmail.com
