FDC Construction Raises Funds for Sick Kids

Build a Gym Ball raises $140,000.00 for children with Cystic Fibrosis

November 20th, 2007

The “Build a Gym Ball” – a black tie event held in Sydney in October – has raised almost $140,000.00 for children with Cystic Fibrosis. The money will go to the Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick.

The organisers of the event, FDC Construction & Fitout, give to several charities, but have a special interest in funding for Cystic Fibrosis ¬– as the General Manager of FDC’s Interiors Division, Darren Attard, has a daughter with the condition.

The event saw 360 people attend a dynamic and hugely successful evening due to the generosity of many companies and individuals.

Sponsors included: Combined Plumbing, VIP Building Services, Clever Kids, Living Edge, Medtronic Australasia, Nettleton Tribe, Organon, RJ Workspace, WorkArena and Stylecraft.
