A Big Event

Monday, 16/04/07 at 5:15 pm by Anita MacDonald

This Friday the 20th of April will be the date of our first public fundraising event!! Snazzipants, a reusable nappy company, are opening their very first retail shop. For the opening event they are holding a fundraising auction with the proceeds going to Aria.

Generous people and companies from within the cloth nappy community have been sewing and knitting frantically to donate beautiful items for people to bid on. Items include sleep sacks, knitted items, cloth wipes and of course lots of gorgeous nappies!

Where: 145 Kitchener Road, Milford (see a map)

When: 4pm

See ya there!!

Update on Lara Sutherland mentioned in our last post:

She received a liver from a kind family who had lost a loved one and decided to donate their liver to give Lara the gift of life. What a wonderful thing for Lara!!

Lara is in PICU and is recovering. It is a full on time for Mum and Dad, one can only imagine. Hopefully the next couple of days bring good news and that liver starts to work well.
