The Rapid Relief Team (RRT) has served an appreciation breakfast to educators who support children with disabilities on International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD).
RRT volunteers cooked up 100 breakfast burgers at two events held at the primary and secondary campuses of Sunbury and Macedon Ranges Specialist School.
Sunbury local team leader Tim Braden said the day was extra important.
“Living with a disability can be challenging, but the staff at schools like Sunbury and Macedon Ranges Specialist School do a wonderful job to support these special kids,” he said.
“The Rapid Relief Team thought International Day of People with Disability was a great opportunity to thank those who dedicate their careers to making a better world for people with disability.”
IDpwD is a United Nations observed day held on 3 December each year, aimed at increasing public awareness, understanding and acceptance.
As the charitable arm of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, RRT supports frontline workers and emergency services by providing food, donations and other resources, as well as hosting events for the community.
Established in 2013 to assist emergency services in times of disaster and crisis by providing meals and other support, RRT has expanded to more than 16,000 volunteers and provides support to the community through charitable donations and events.
