With the support of the community, Blooms The Chemist has donated over $2 million to help Make-A-Wish Australia grant life-changing wishes for sick kids.
Since 2016, Blooms The Chemist has held over 100 fundraisers for Make-A-Wish Australia at its support office and across its member network, including bake sales, raffles, sausage sizzles and charity golf days. One network member in particular, Blooms The Chemist Miller (NSW) has raised and donated over $25,000 to Make-A-Wish Australia since 2016.
Blooms The Chemist CEO, Emmanuel Vavoulas said, “It comes down to the kindness and generosity of the individual Blooms The Chemist communities, network pharmacies, and supplier partners to help us reach this milestone.
“The work Make-A-Wish Australia does for critically ill children and their families is life-changing, and as a network of community pharmacies, we are so proud to support families across Australia in any way we can.”
Make-A-Wish Australia CEO, Sally Bateman added, “Raising over $2 million is an extraordinary achievement and demonstrates the incredible effort and passion of the Blooms The Chemist team, customers, and pharmacy network.
“As an organisation that receives no government funding, partners like Blooms The Chemist are crucial in helping us grant wishes for the critically ill children in our program. Thanks to the ongoing support from Blooms The Chemist and the broader Australian community, we can bring more wishes to life for the 900 children currently on their Wish Journey, making a genuine difference in their lives.”
