MercerBell raises $5,500 for client Australian Paralympic Committee at its annual art auction

MercerBell’s second annual charity art auction and party for staff and clients has raised $5,500 for their charity client – the Australian Paralympic Committee, with two of the agency’s staff donating their books for the cause.

Lucy Wallrock – a top 6 finalist in the last season of MasterChef – provided the first-edition of her new baking cookbook, while Gene Stapleton has donated one of the first of the children’s books he has illustrated, called Hump T-Rex.

The Australian Paralympic Committee also provided an auction item that attracted very competitive bidding on the night – a track cycling experience for twenty people.

MercerBell encourages creativity from all staff via the MercerBell Creative Community. A wide range of creative items were offered for auction on the night bringing to life the concept including photography, paintings, home-roasted coffee beans and hand-dyed scarves.
