Old Parliament House and Hotel Realm played host to Frockettes looking fabulous at Frock Fridays. The bubbly flowed as did the conversation, the fashion and the donations.

It has been a mind boggling month for those of us here at Frocktober Canberra HQ. We set out to raise 10,000 in our first year and we have simply smashed that. At our Finale party, we were ecstatic to announce that as of Sunday we had raised 34,000 and donations continue to flow in. We remain hopeful of our final number being somewhere in the high thirties.
This could not have been achieved without you - the Canberra Community - frockettes, frockafellas, Sponsors, Ambassadors, Departments, businesses, organisations, community groups. Our sincerest thanks to every single person who joined us for the inaugural frocktober in Canberra.
When we have details of the final amount raised, we'll let you all know. We have loved working with all of you on this frockin' good cause and look forward to making 2011 even bigger and better!
Some housekeeping notes:
- Our Every Day Hero site will close for donations for 2010 on the 7th of November
- Any donations not placed on the site can be banked to the Frocktober Canberra account (email us at frocktobercanberra@gmail.com for the details)
- Receipt forms can be emailed to us - we send them to the national frocktober office and they arrange the tax receipts with the OCRF.
- Do you have any feedback for us or would you like to be involved next year? Please email us at frocktobercanberra@gmail.com
