Julia Morris a hit at 3rd Mater Dei Lipstick Luncheon

Two of Australia's best known comedians Julia Morris and Jackie Loeb, visited the Cube recently for a very good reason. Julia was the MC and together with surprise act Jackie, they entertained all at Mater Dei's third Ladies Lipstick Luncheon which was held on May 13. By all accounts Julia and Jackie were a hit and the luncheon was a great success!

The 450 women (and four men!) in attendance experienced many emotions during the luncheon as they watched a moving DVD presentation depicting the work of Mater Dei, an inspiring performance of the Mater Dei student dance troupe and choir and then experienced almost two and a half hours of laughter as Julia and then Jackie shared their unique insights into life and being a woman.

Debbie Gates, Manager Development Program at Mater Dei, said the luncheon was a lot of fun for all in attendance. “ Our student dance troupe/choir and Julia and Jackie were the keys to ensuring the event was a great success. "

With the generous support from the event sponsors, and enthusiastic support from supporters and guests for the two terrific raffles held, the event raised over $28,000 nett for the children of Mater Dei. The funds will be directed towards their community participation programs which include inclusive schooling, structured work placement and daily excursions into the local community - “all valuable experiences that really do provide our students with the skills they need to help them take their place in their communities as confidently as they can" Debbie said.

Debbie said that an event like this is not possible without a great venue, enthusiastic sponsors and supporters and a dynamic Organising Committee. “ In particular, we would like to thank our sponsors the Perich Group and Rachel Stubbs & Associates, and Blooms the Chemist, Commonwealth Bank, East Coast Positioning, Marsdens Law Group, Macarthur Credit Union, Peter Hammill O & G Practice and Stanford Solicitors & Conveyancers, the Organising Committee members Catherine Perich (Chair), Anne Adam, Julie Butta, Rebekah Gates, Kristen Green & Pina Nasso and the staff at the Cube for their generous support.
