Thinking pink raises awareness for cancer
Best pink outfit was awarded to Myra Donaldson at the Lions Club of Clyde & Districts Breast Cancer fundraising morning SUPPLIED The Facilities Building at Aurum Lifestyle Village was awash with pink as the Lions Club of Clyde & Districts hosted a vibrant morning tea in support of Breast Cancer Research last week. Around 60 guests gathered for the special event, donning decorated bras and their best pink outfits in a spirited show of solidarity for a cause that touches countless lives. The venue was transformed with pink bunting, balloons, flowers, and tablecloths creating a cheerful and welcoming atmosphere filled with warmth and community spirit. Attendees were treated to a spread of cakes and morning tea delicacies, all generously provided by club members and local supporters. Lions Club & Districts member Anne Dougherty said the generosity of everyone who attended was truly moving. "It was a meaningful morning, not just for the fundraising, but for the sense of togetherness." All proceeds from the event will go directly towards Breast Cancer Research, supporting essential efforts in prevention, treatment and ongoing support for those affected. Ms Dougherty said she was grateful for the generosity of spirit shown at the event and to everyone who donated, or contributed in any way. "Also a special thanks to Aurum Lifestyle Village for providing the venue for such a successful and inspiring event."
