Telethon has been going now for many years and it is one charity that many people in WA have, over time, given something to - whether it be a small or a large amount, all donations help to make Telethon our biggest money earner for such a worthy cause. Donations from Telethon financially support the medical and social welfare of children, while funding research into many children's diseases.
Here is what happens with the money raised by
Telethon each year.
This year, VCM are holding a fundraising event called Rock Rattle and Roll for Telethon. It has the unique theme of celebrating and recognising all things vintage, and particularly to the era of rockabilly and rock and roll!
Wanneroo Show Grounds was the original venue for the Telethon Swap Meets, and was established in 1968, and this exciting event will be held on the official Telethon weekend of 15th and 16th October at the Wanneroo Showgrounds. More details regarding the vintage collective markets can be seen
here .
The Saturday night is all about sounds, smells and visual delights and VIP guests from around the world will help make this a fun night. There will be bars, markets and some of Perth's best foodie vendors, as well as dancing and many stalls trading around the grounds of the oval. One of the VIP guests is Sabina Kelley, who is a Guest presenter and judge, an International Pin Up Model, TV Star, and Burlesque Performer. Sabina will meet and greet with the public at her dedicated interactive merchandising display, at 8 pm on Saturday night and will also judge the Rock'n Ink the finals!
