Westmead Children's Hospital Visimax Donation

Tracey Marshall, Dr Peter van Asperen
Barry & Dr Peter Cooper

On Thursday 5th March, I visited the Respiratory Clinic at the Westmead Chidren's Hospital and donated 2 Visimax Mini Data Projectors to the department for use by staff and children and their families.
The idea was spawned by a very good friend of mine who has supported the Respiratory Department of the Children's Hospital for many years dating back to the hospital being located in Camperdown. Being a modest man, my friend prefers not to be named but his support of the Children's Hospital and particularly the Respiratory Department, stems from his own treatment at the hospital in Camperdown.

When Maxon Electronics Australia Pty Ltd heard about our intended donation, they kindly matched my friend's and my donation with a 2nd Visimax Mini Projector. Thanks to Dana Baggetto, Ray Sanders and Ross Gregory from Maxon for their generosity also.

We're hoping that the projectors get a big workout at the hospital and assist both staff and patients to enjoy their stay just a little bit more. And thanks to the Respiratory team above for the afternoon tea and for taking time to see us.

Westmead Children's Hospital is always open to sponsorship and donations and more information can be found by following the link below.

COOL HOTS

"I remain convinced that micro-projectors are among the coolest inventions of the year."
David Pogue New York Times December 11, 2008

One of the smallest data projectors on the market, the Visimax LED data projector is the answer to almost everyone’s data projection dreams; for portability, ease of operation, value for money and just downright cute, geeky, sexy, gizmodic funkiness, it has to be one of the best “sliced-bread” options for any or all of your data projection requirements, whether professional or personal.
