Australia ’s Biggest Morning Tea is a great way to get your friends, family and colleagues together and raise funds in support of the Cancer Council NT.
In May 2009 Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea hosts and their guests enjoyed a cuppa across the Northern Territory and raised over $140,000.
The top 10 highest fundraisers for 2009 were:
Greek Orthodox Community - Irene Mellios
Delia Lawrie Member for Karama
Amanda Denouel
Rural Garden Club
Chung Wah Society - Melanie Chin
Australian Fuel Distributors - Anna Poullas
ISAS
- Samantha Miles
Tiwi Gardens Retirement Village - Sue Donnelly
Conoco Phillips - Suzanne Milford
Monadelphous - Michelle Lockyer
Simply by hosting a morning tea with your friends, family or work colleagues, you will be directly helping to raise funds for support services for patients and families and building a cancer smart community in the NT.
All you need to do is relax and have fun together; your guests can make a donation while enjoying their favourite cuppa. It couldn't be easier. Remember, every cup counts!
The best thing about hosting a morning tea is you can do it absolutely anywhere:
- at work with your colleagues and customers
- at home with friends or neighbours coming over for a cuppa – why not ask them to bring a plate?
- at your social or sporting club ask people to bake some treats for your usual break
- cafes, hotels and restaurants can organise a special event, or donate all or part of their drink sales
