Pd Training Giving Program

In recent times the pd training giving program has been doing some great work, some of the highlights have been:

• On November 5th pd training donated an Android Tablet to St Paul’s School in Brisbane valued at $199.00

• On October 11th, 2015, Karen Winfield, Co-Founder of pd training rode her push bike 135 kilometres and raised $531.00 for The Smith Family Foundation:
  
  “The Smith Family is a charity to assist children who are disadvantaged, with helping them receive an education just like all the rest of us. It was a wonderful 135k ride from Geelong to Melbourne and even more rewarding knowing that I was riding for a cause that is close to my heart.
  
  The weather was perfect and I spent a whole of 7hrs 45mins completing the distance. This included a 50mins ferry ride and some yummy breaks even with a massage. In total it took us 5hrs 24mins of actual riding which is an average of 24.4km/hr which is a fantastic result.”

• On July 7th, 2015 pd training donated $500.00 to the World Vision Foundation as part of an end-of-year client initiative.
  
  “As part of our End of Year Promotion for each client that prepaid a certain $ amount then we would Train a Trainer as part of World Vision. I am happy to advise that we have just paid for 4 trainers to be trained.
  
  A gift of training for a teacher today means educated and inspired children tomorrow. Education is our most powerful weapon in the fight against poverty.
  
  Thanks to all who helped make this a reality – you have helped to change someone’s life.”
