UNFORGETTABLE FUNDRAISERS SAM MAHER Sam joined our 2016 #BagWalkers campaign and completely blew us away with his fundraising. Busking all around Perth, Australia playing a unique instrument commonly referred to as a Hand Pan or Hang Drum, Sam raised over $4000 for the #BagWalkers campaign. Sam has played this beautiful instrument all over the world and he has seen how its enchanting sound has the ability to connect people and breakdown barriers of age, language and race. Using the connective power of music, Sam inspired people all over Perth to donate generously to his campaign and spread awareness about the global education crisis. Truly inpirational, Sam! GaBy In 2013 Gaby set up a lemonade stand with some of her friends to raise funds for Classroom of Hope. They sold lemonade, cookies and cupcakes for Classroom of Hope. In 2015 Gaby decided she wanted to fundraise for education again! Gaby ran 12km in Perth’s City to Surf. She asked for the support of her family and friends and through this support she raised $443.25 for education. You are a rock star, Gaby!
