Convoy for Kids
For eight years running our transport drivers have taken to the road
for the annual Convoy for Kids fundraiser.
Truck drivers from dozens of companies parade their vehicles through
the streets in support of the Asthma Foundation.
Over the past decade, the Convoy has raised $110,000 for research into
childhood asthma, which affects two in five children, and is the most
common reason for school absenteeism and admission to hospital.
Stamps Mark the Birth of a New Nation
In May 2002, Australia Post handed over East Timor’s first stamps
to the emerging nation’s new government. Two million stamps were
produced by Post as a gesture of friendship to the East Timorese people.
All revenue from the sale of the stamps – estimated at around $500,000 – goes
to the East Timorese Government.
