The Kiama Branch of the Red Cross will host their annual Christmas stall on Saturday, December 10.
It will be located in front of Ray White Kiama and run from 8.30am-2.30pm.
They will be selling baked goods, crafts, jams, Red Cross Christmas cards and also run a raffle for a Christmas hamper.
The raffle will be drawn at the conclusion of the stall.
Heidi Smith, vice-president of the Kiama Branch of the Red Cross said the hamper was “donated by lovely friends of the Red Cross, to honour the memory of two of our members that passed away this year”.
“These women were very active, and would have been thrilled that they were remembered so fondly,” she said.
“They are Anne Cowling, our former Red Cross president, and Pat Mennie, a dedicated and hard-working member.
“I think they would both be really honoured to know that was donated in memory of them.
“We’re really excited that we’re able to sell the raffle tickets as part of our regular Christmas stall.”
Proceeds will go to the organisation’s Telecross welfare program, as well as general funds for the Australian Red Cross.
