04 Nov, 2009 03:35 PM
After a life-changing trip to Cambodia in January, Luiza Ruzic-Cappellani's has found herself devoting every spare minute to fundraising for the children she met there.

Ms Ruzic-Cappellani is heading a fundraiser to build a new home for young landmine victims as part of the Cambodian Landmine Museum Relief Fund.

In less than a year, Ms Ruzic-Cappellani said she has had "offers of help from everywhere".

"Lots of people have come up to me asking how they can help," she said.

"It's incredible and has seemed to take on a life of its own."

A fundraiser dinner will be held to raise money for The Sabaay Centre for Children Cambodia at Golden Star Palace in Cabramatta on November 13 from 7pm.

Ms Ruzic-Cappellani said funds raised will go towards building rehabilitation centre for children affected by landmines, polio and HIV.

Tickets can be purchased at any Fairfield City Leisure Centre, 9757 2433 and the Golden Star Palace, 9725 7282.
