<strong>Adelaide</strong>’s very own DIVA Ladies Club raising money for Kidsafe SA<br />

Kidsafe SA is the leading non-government, not-for-profit organisation dedicated<br />

to the prevention of unintentional childhood injuries and provides an information<br />

service for parents and carers of children on all aspects of child safety and<br />

injury prevention.<br />

Injuries are still the leading cause of death in Australian children aged one to<br />

fourteen, accounting for nearly half of all deaths in this age group. More<br />

children die of injury than die of cancer, asthma and infectious diseases<br />

combined. There is still much more work to be done to reduce this shocking<br />

statistic<br />

In South Australia, the Kidsafe Centre is located in the Women’s and Children’s<br />

Hospital at North <strong>Adelaide</strong>. We provide an education, information and resource<br />

service for parents, carers, grandparents and students on child safety and<br />

injury prevention at home, in the backyard, on the road etc.<br />

Our major fundraising function for 2011 is the DIVA Club Ladies Luncheon –<br />

‘DIVAs go Wild @ <strong>Sanctuary</strong> <strong>Adelaide</strong> <strong>Zoo</strong>’ - to be held on Friday 9 th September.<br />

Opened in 2010, <strong>Sanctuary</strong> <strong>Adelaide</strong> <strong>Zoo</strong> is a state of the art function facility<br />

located on the first floor of <strong>Adelaide</strong>’s <strong>Zoo</strong>’s new $30 million re-development.<br />

We are pleased to announce the major raffle prize for the 2011 DIVA Ladies<br />

Luncheon has kindly been donated by Springfree Trampolines – a R54 Compact<br />

Round Trampoline valued at $945.00.<br />

There will be a fashion parade, music, great food and wine and an opportunity to<br />

have a girl’s day out, while raising money to support the work of Kidsafe in SA.<br />

Approximately 250 ladies will be attending this year’s luncheon!<br />

For years we heard tales of the “Boys Club” lunches, and the secret business<br />

transacted there. <strong>Adelaide</strong>’s very own DIVA Club was launched in 2007 as partly<br />

a tribute to that magnificent female, Makybe Diva, but mostly a tribute to the<br />

members.<br />

The purpose of the DIVA Club is to meet at least once a year; to enjoy very<br />

good company, food and wine, and generally to have a good time. As an added<br />

bonus, we donate all profits of the Ladies Luncheons to Kidsafe SA.


Kidsafe SA DIVA Club ladies Luncheons are organised by the Kidsafe SA<br />

Fundraising Committee Members who include Jodi Brumby, Casana Perryman,<br />

Janie Green, Karyn Foster, Helen Clarke, Theofania Kulpinski, Helen Noblet and<br />

Holly Fitzgerald.<br />
