Little Guys Making a Big Difference - Part 7 - Adventure World
Mark Fitzpatrick
Group Chief Executive Officer at PeopleKind Group | Impact 25 Winner
As the seventh in my instalments of posts about lesser known businesses or business leaders making a big difference for people less fortunate than them. Today I focus on a brand that is better known for those of us with kids - Adventure World - and their amazing CEO Mark Shaw.
Mark Shaw's Commitment
2016 will be Mark Shaw's third CEO Sleepout and up to date he has raised $26,304 for homelessness services. But Mark's commitment to making the lives of Perth's community who are experiencing homelessness does not stop there. Mark is a generous contributor to homeless youth, providing countless admissions to the theme park, which has provided young people who live on the streets with an experience none of them had ever had before. Mark has also taken the time to see first hand what happens at Passages and has kindly donated access to Adventure World for fundraising events and more.
This year Mark's commitment to the cause will also see him being joined by three of his executive team, which will no doubt create even more drive to help us address homelessness in our community.
Adventure World
Adventure World is an amazing theme park that includes world-class attractions set amongst beautifully landscaped botanical gardens and lawns. Adventure World aims to "create happiness and long lasting magical memories by providing the finest theme park entertainment for people of all ages all of the time".
