Parkville Gardens’ Biggest Morning Tea fundraiser

The Parkville Gardens community has banded together to host its annual Biggest Morning Tea to raise money for cancer research.

The May 14 event held at Cade Square saw nearly 50 people gather with hardworking volunteers supplying plenty of homemade cakes, sweets, spinach and ricotta pastry, choc chip cookies, lemonade and more.

Organiser Ajith Vasanthakumar said the day was a success despite damp weather with the community raising $543 in total from the bake sale.

“Overall, the enthusiasm and the mood was exceptional,” he said. “People brought umbrellas and rain jackets and chatted away in rain.”

Mr Vasanthakumar thanked volunteers and the community for their support •
