It's snags. raffles and rolls for appeal
COMMUNITY fundraising has started for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal.
Members of the Inglewood Fire Brigade were out in force on Saturday cooking sausages outside IGA while other brigade volunteers were in the foyer selling tickets in their Easter egg raffle.
The team included Xander Wilson who turns 15 this month when he will be able to join the brigade and continue a family tradition into another generation.
His mother Elissa, the brigade’s communications officer, is again co-ordinating the brigade’s fundraising activities that will include street collections on Good Friday.
Cafe 3517 is also backing Inglewood’s efforts by donating $2 from every breaky roll sold in March to the appeal.
Owners Brooke and David Smyth said they encouraged residents across the Loddon to support appeal fundraising initiatives.
Boort’s usual launch of appeal fundraising was dampened when rain fell throughout the trotting club’s free admission cup meeting.
Members of Amity had planned to take donations as the crowd arrived last week.
