Saints Netball Club hands donation to support group

Saints Netball Club has handed over a $300 donation to the Limestone Coast Prostate Cancer Support Group after raising the funds at the club’s annual Blue Day.

It was the first time the club, which competes in the Mount Gambier Netball Association, has been able to hold what had become a regular fundraiser since 2019.

It saw the Mount Gambier Netball Association resembling a sea of blue as all clubs got into the spirit of the day, adding touches of blue to their game day apparel. Saints committee and members worked very hard behind the scenes to cook up a storm and held a good old fashioned cake stall along with running a raffle on the day.

This effort has enabled the club to donate the $300 proceeds to the Limestone Coast Prostate Cancer Support Group. Saints Netball Club would like to thank all the businesses and individuals who donated items for their raffle, along with the generous donations for the cake stall and to everyone who supported our fundraiser on the day.

The club is now in preparation for this years Blue Day and look forward to raising more awareness for this disease that affects so many families in our community.

Limestone Coast Prostate Cancer Support Group’s Malcolm Porter was grateful to receive the kind donation to allow the group to continue to provide vital support for prostate cancer sufferers and their families.
