We would like to thank Salesforce.com who came on board donating $17,000 to NWDS, this money has been put to good use to buy supplies and equipment to help establish and maintain The Secret Garden which RDA will benefit from. Salesforce.com staff have also generously donated their time to help with construction works for the mess hall and various other maintenance jobs. We look forward to their continued support and contribution to this valuable cause.
