Event to help give hope for a better tomorrow
Dimbulah author Colleen Taylor knows firsthand how much support is needed for women battling cancer, which is why she’s proud to be hosting a Pink Ribbon Morning Tea this Friday 20 October to raise money for cancer research and support services.
The fundraising event, from 10am to 12noon at The Junction Hotel Beer Garden, will include three raffle prizes and eight auctions.
A pampering pack, fuel voucher, a pink flowering shrub and a pink cord-plaited horse whip are some of the prizes on offer at the event, with morning tea provided by Dimbulah Bakery.
From 20 September 20 to 20 October, Ms Taylor, a cancer survivor of 22 years, is personally donating $5 off the sale of her latest book Unearthing Einasleigh and District Bygone Days, which will be available at the morning tea.
She said her group of volunteers and generous prize donations make the event possible, and she wants the community to embrace it.
“We want everyone to come along and have an enjoyable morning,” she said.
