UFU Members have been busy in our community recently, showing community members over equipment and raising vital funds for charities and individuals.

Walk For Wellness

Members participated in Olivia Newton John’s Walk for Wellness, to support people living with cancer. All funds raised go towards wellness programs that reduce the side effects of treatment and help people living with cancer to thrive.

Members also honoured the memory of late Leading Firefighter, Scott Morrison, who passed away in 2016 by walking alongside Scott’s family.

Keeley’s Cause

Station 68 were able to donate 3 very special iPads to local children in Ballarat recently, with the help of a $2,000 sponsorship from the Firefighters Charity Fund.

Keeley’s Cause provides children living with Autism and intellectual disabilities from low socio-economic backgrounds to learn through the provision of iPads.

The crew from Station 68 showed the recipients over trucks and gave them a great experience of what it is like to be a firefighter.
