On May 22, the Mooroolbark Library held a big morning tea for the Cancer Council.
The fundraiser is a part of Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea, an initiative raised by the Cancer Council in an effort to raise life saving funds for Australians who are impacted by cancer.
This is Mooroolbark Library’s third year running this fundraiser where over 80 people attended, already raising $400.
Mooroolbark Library acting team leader Candice Zaviska said the event was a great way to bring the community together.
“There was lots of chatter going on all morning… people came in to have a chat and started to make friends, it was a real community event, it was lovely,” Ms Zaviska said.
The library has other opportunities for the community to raise money for the Cancer Council with a book sale and raffle set to happen within the next month.
The event is scheduled to happen Australia-wide on 22 May, however hosts can have a morning tea throughout May and June.
