$4000 for Cancer Council - Girls Night In.

The Geelong Trades Hall Women Unionists Network again supported the Cancer Council of Victoria by holding a ‘Girls Night In’ on Tuesday night.

Geelong Trades Hall Vice President Ms Christine Couzens said “the Women Unionists Network held the annual event at the Geelong Trades Hall, which included an auction, raffle and a variety of stalls.

Many Unions and Geelong Businesses donated items to raffle and auction on the night and some also set up stalls with 10% of all sales being donated to the Cancer Council, their generosity is greatly appreciated. The money raised on the night funds research into women’s cancers, she said”.

Ms Couzens said “the group of women unionists raised almost $4,000 on the night with the total amount going directly to the Cancer Council of Victoria. This is a fantastic result and we are all really proud to have been a part of such an important fundraiser”.
