It’s a True Blue Day
19 May 2006

The Gallipoli Research Foundation at Greenslopes Private Hospital is asking: “Are you True Blue?”

The Hospital, along with a number of RSL Clubs and others are celebrating True Blue Day as part of the Foundation’s True Blue Appeal to raise awareness and dollars for vital medical research on the Hospital site.

“We’ve seen some amazing examples of mateship lately, and just what it means to be ‘true blue’. Now we’re asking people to be ‘true blue’ and help their mates by giving to the True Blue Appeal,” Foundation Fundraising Manager, Robynne Milne said.

Kevin Rudd, recently returned from walking the Kokoda Track, is lending his support to the Appeal.
“ We must continue to remember the fallen from all theatres of war, and help those who remain. It’s important to honour them and to find practical ways to acknowledge their outstanding sacrifice. That is why I support the Gallipoli Research Foundation at Greenslopes Private Hospital. The Foundation aims to become a centre of excellence in medical research and by doing so, leave a lasting legacy to the veteran and war widow community,” Kevin said.
