The Whitsundays is gearing up for the comfiest day of the year when they’ll don their PJs and create change for National Pyjama Day next week.
The day all about wearing your favourite pair of jammies to help The Pyjama Foundation raise much-needed awareness and funds for children in foster care is fast approaching on July 22.
Supporters from across the region are getting ready to rock their PJs at work, school and everywhere in between, including Proserpine Hospital staff.
Proserpine Hospital Executive Support Officer Christine Neilson said that this was the fifth year the hospital would be taking part in the charity event.
“The hospital had started participating in Pyjama Day from request of our intern group five years ago,” Ms Neilson said.
“We usually have quite a large group participating each year. It’s a bit of fun for the staff, because who doesn’t like to wear comfy PJS to work!
Ms Neilson said, aside from the fun side of the event, it was important to raise funds and awareness for the cause.
“The foundation provides educational resources and learning skills for those children; it’s a great cause,” she said.
“It’s a great way to start the conversation about the important work that the Pyjama Foundation do and you get to wear comfy clothes to work for the day!”
National Pyjama Day is vital to the success of the Pyjama Foundation’s Love of Learning Program which is offered to children in foster care - Australia's lowest performing educational group.
