Join us for Brisbane’s first Timpir African Dinner
We are excited to have the Founder of Timpir, Dr Melanie Baak, visiting Brisbane on Monday 10 July 2023 and have decided to try something a little different from a movie night and will be holding an African dinner to raise much-needed funds. Our schools have recently struggled not only through COVID but have had terrible floods and our classrooms have been damaged. The community are trying their hardest to rebuild the classrooms, and in the meantime, classes continue under the trees. Funds raised will assist in rebuilding and buying much needed blackboards etc., along with paying the teachers’ salaries. A teacher in South Sudan earns $100 per month (that is less than a take-away coffee each day for the month!!).
We will be holding our fundraising dinner at Mu’ooz Restaurant (Not-For Profit Restaurant) at West End, founded and managed by Saba who has been kind enough to support Timpir and host our dinner at her Eritrean Restaurant. Saba is well known in Brisbane and has helped more than 270 refugee and migrant women gain vocational training. Saba was the Qld state recipient local hero in 2022 and was one of 10 Australians to be invited to the Queen’s Funeral.We hope to see you at our first Brisbane Timpir Dinner on the 10 July.
