Online cookbook
Year 12 Students from Point Cook Senior Secondary College nominated Aspect to benefit from their online cookbook fundraiser and raised an amazing $1,500! The online cookbook features 60 recipes from different cultural backgrounds, with the school community being asked to donate to the campaign and in return, they received access to the online cookbook.
This innovative fundraiser was part of the Year 12 VCAL Personal Development Skills programme.
Bake sale
A small group of students from St Thomas’ Catholic Primary School held a bake sale as part of their school project. The kids baked and sold their creations over a period of two days and raised an amazing $694.40 for Aspect.
Ben's hair shave fundraiser
Ben from Tomaree High School raised a whopping $3,500 through his hair shave fundraiser. Ben has been growing his hair over 3 years and organised a hair shaving event in the school hall in front of his peers.
"I'm doing this in memory of my cousin Cameron, who was on the autism spectrum and sadly passed away last year. Donating the money to Autism Spectrum Australia would mean a lot to my family".
How you can support our Aspect schools
Our nine autism-specific Aspect schools offer a caring, supportive environment where highly-trained teachers can identify the strengths to each child, nurture their interests, help them achieve goals and reach their potential.
Your fundraising can provide much needed resources like iPads and computers to help children learn visually.
