The Mullumbimby Chamber of Commerce (MCC) and the Mullumbimby Country Women’s Association (CWA) came together recently to raise money for the Cancer Council with a Biggest Morning Tea, hosted by Ellen Briggs.
Everyone enjoyed a delicious breakfast thanks to Baker and Daughters, while having fun with a range of games, including celebrity heads which kept everyone amused while raising money for the Cancer Council.
‘The CWA also had a cake stall which raised money, and the Mullumbimby Ex-Services Club donated the space.
‘We were able to raise over $1,000,’ said MCC member and event organiser, Jenelle Stanford.
Dignity bags
The Chamber also collected donations for dignity bags for women at the Biggest Morning Tea event, as they did at the previous International Women’s Day breakfast, run by the Chamber in March.
‘We have now donated those bags to the Mullumbimby and District Neighbourhood Centre,’ said Ms Stanford.
The dignity bags provide homeless women with a range of necessities from shampoo and conditioner to menstrual products.
