After Jeans for Genes Australia had its event to talk about the development and importance of its work, a group of children who came along then donned Kids & Co denim aprons and worked with Fiddler chefs help them make yummy cupcakes.
Head chef David Stubing said the kids had a blast making the cakes, as well as frothing up some warm milk, pretending it was coffee.
Afterwards, everyone was invited to enjoy staying at the prestigious, newly opened Mercure Rouse Hill, which adjoins the Fiddler.
“The kids were able to forget about their illness and suffering for a while,” a Fiddler spokeswoman said.
“The Fiddler was honoured and it was a privilege to see the smiles on the children’s faces.”
Jeans for Genes Australia gushed over the event on its Facebook page, saying how much families and its hard-working scientists, who are dedicated to finding cures for genetic conditions, enjoyed the evening.
“Kids like Naomi, Iluka and Chloe put on denim aprons and decorated their own cupcakes. What goes better together than kids and cupcakes.
“We hope this partnership is long-lasting,” the organisation said.
The organisation has become successful raising funds for scientific research through its annual Jeans for Genes Day where workers donate money for the privilege of wearing jeans to work.
To be successful, workplaces such as The Fiddler fully support their workers engaging with a good cause.
