The time is nearing for residents to embrace awareness for bipolar disorder.
The Embrace4Bipolar Webathon will be held at the Kildare Catholic College hall on Saturday, August 8, and has attracted a swag of talent to speak and entertain at the event.
TV personality Jessica Rowe will be making a video appearance, as well as up-and-coming indie pop songstress Cassidy-Rae Wilson.
The webathon is a modern take on the telathon – it is a internet-based platform with a gala style dinner – and will run from 7pm to 10pm raising money for the Ian Parker Bipolar Research Fund.
Tickets for the event cost $120, with tables of 10 available. The ticket includes a three-course meal and four drink tokens plus a thank you gift.
To find out more information on the webathon such as sponsorship details or how you can donate, contact embrace4bipolar@gmail.com, or go to embrace4bipolar.com.au.
The event will be live streamed for two hours, and will include a silent auction.
