The
Annual Weary Dunlop Appeal 12-24 July 2011 This year again, The Sir Edward Dunlop Medical Research Foundation is holding The Annual Weary Dunlop Appeal, an opportunity for Australians to give generously to help Australian medical research; a chance to perpetuate the selfless and steadfast spirit of the Foundation’s namesake, Sir Edward ‘Weary’ Dunlop. The Annual Weary Dunlop Appeal 2011 has the official patronage of Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, Sir Arvi Parbo, Hugh Morgan AC, Tony Charlton, Bert Newton and Ernie Sigley. It will be
launched throughout Victoria at the Commemorative Service on 12 July,
at Weary’s statue on St. Kilda Road, and will run for the two weeks
until July 24. The service will be attended by Patrons of the Weary Dunlop
Appeal as well as dignitaries from the Australian Defence Forces, RSL
network and other service organizations. |

During the two weeks of the appeal, we aim to sell Weary Dunlop lapel pins in the Melbourne city centre and around the state through the efforts of RSL branches, hospitals, schools and other community groups. You can help us to help others by making a different kind of donation – your time and effort. We are seeking volunteers to help before and during the two-week campaign by selling Weary Dunlop lapel pins, pens and greeting cards, by assisting us with administrative and logistical support and/or by displaying posters and printed materials in the community in order to raise awareness and understanding of the Foundation and the appeal. If you are
interested in volunteering for the Weary Dunlop Annual Appeal, please
fill out and submit the form here and we will contact you with further
information. a) Actively
