It was a combined effort involving the whole group, Peter Warren Automotive. There was a staff fundraser where employees donated anything from toys, clothes to cash. And although I don't know the exact figure the company itself donated a large slice of that. I'm happy to say the future Mrs RATT was involved on my behalf as well as I could not attend due to being tied up at work.

It was a great effort, especially by some of the bigger companys weighing in with donations that most of will not earn in a lifetime. What impressed me most is the donations by Hyundai and Mazda, just a shame that Ford and Holden didn't contribute.

My jaw litterally dropped when I heard it. Once again top effort and well done to all the guys and gals at Peter Warren.
BTW, Which poor bugger had to wait on the line for 2h?

Good to see that the people of this country continue to open their hearts and wallets to help the less fortunate - and well done to PWM for their contribution.
Cheers Russ

Congrats to everyone at the Peter Warren Group.
That sounds like the sort of thing that's worth a hats off mention in a magazine if I've ever heard it...

Just got confirmation that Peter Warren Automotive which consists of PW Smithfield and the Warrick Farm branch donated $100,000 in cash to the cause and the staff also combined to donate toys, clothes and tinned food.
