Worldwide Adds Even More Colour to ‘Outrageous’ Charity Event
As a major sponsor of the year’s Peet Op Shop Ball for Anglicare WA, Worldwide produced all the material used to communicate the showcase charity event’s features and benefits via brochures, posters, auction catalogues and other promotional media.
Held last week at the Burswood Entertainment Complex Grand Ballroom, the annual charity ball’s 600 guests raised around $100,000 to help Anglicare’s crusade to support community services such as emergency relief, counselling, housing assistance and children’s services.
Definitely not black tie, ball guests flocked to Anglicare’s second-hand clothing Op-Shops for their attire. The theme was ‘Outrageous!’ and the random outfits rose to the occasion.
“We were delighted to have been able to be a major sponsor of The Op Shop Ball for its second year,” said Worldwide Online Printing CEO Mark Manderson.
“We all lead such hectic lives and rarely get time to pause to consider those who are less fortunate than ourselves. Anglicare’s incredible staff and volunteers do so much for the community here in WA, and we seize any and every opportunity we can to support them.
“In fact, we’re already geared up to be a major print sponsor again for 2009.”
“It was a fantastic night, with great entertainment and a fun vibe,” Mark added. “As for the costumes – my polyester suit was quite tame in comparison!”
The night’s entertainment was equally diverse, and ranged from a punk bagpiper to a Bee Gees tribute band. Fundraising also played a key role, and included live and silent auctions, a raffle, and even ‘fashion help’ for those whose outfits weren’t quite ‘Outrageous!’ enough.
Ian Craig, Chairman of The Op-Shop Ball and Executive General Manager of Fundraising and Marketing for Anglicare WA, said: “We couldn’t do it without the generous support of our sponsors, including Worldwide Online Printing. The quality of the print and design work gives our event such a professional image and we were overwhelmed again this year by the generosity of this digital print franchise team.”
“We were overwhelmed to see so many people come out to support Anglicare WA. It was fantastic to see everyone follow the theme and dress so outrageously!”
