Enrolment data  confirms that Aspire UWA is already achieving higher  transfer rates to university. As a program designed to  improve transfer rates to higher education overall, this is a  very pleasing outcome. The Cerebral Palsy Foundation has now successfully  completed the construction and opening of their new CP  Tech Unit. A plaque was kindly erected in the ‘Rainbow  Waiting Room’ in recognition of MRL’s support. MRL continues to be one of the biggest WA supporter for  Make-A-Wish Foundation, enabling wish granting to reach  more West Australian kids and families throughout the year. Providing operational funding for the Salvation Army’s  Kwinana Men’s Shed Program ensures the Salvation Army’s  presence remains in the community, delivering “real  services, to real people, in ways that meet their real needs”.  This program is pivotal in the Rockingham and Kwinana  community, encouraging men to build new relationships and  explore individual worth, confidence and a healthy, positive  lifestyle. The program provides support through a variety  of social activities, health seminars, walking groups and  woodwork activities.  Advocacy Centre (GJCAC) is currently not government  funded, relying on continued funding through sponsorship  and donation partnerships to sustain its operations and the  successful rehabilitation of vulnerable children in Perth.  Plans are underway for a Northern GJCAC to compliment  the Southern operations. MRL continues to support Princess Margaret Hospital’s  Regional Assistance Fund, which last year assisted  hundreds of families in out of pocket expenses incurred  when travelling to Perth from remote areas.
