It’s time to mimic Rudolph, for a good cause, and rock your red nose in Boronia.
On Friday 11 August the Boronia Library will play host to the Red Nose morning tea fundraiser, to raise funds for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
SIDS is a devastating illness for families in the Knox municipality, as well as wider Australian families, and the fundraiser seeks to support their cause and give more support to families impacted by the disease.
Boronia Library team leader Jess Brown said she has personal connections to family members who have been impacted by SIDS, and said it was a terrible time for everyone.
“I’m sure we would have customers with their own experiences and memories too,” she said.
Ms Brown said their previous fundraisers have been great successes, and everyone enjoyed eating good food for a good cause.
“We are lucky to have a very caring and thoughtful community at Boronia,” she said.
There will be two sittings at 10am and 11am, with yummy cabinet food from Bakers Delight, hot beverages, and a great chance to sit and reflect about SIDS with some warm and kind people to talk to.
Ms Brown said it will be a really relaxing event for the whole community.
Locals can book their spot using their library account, and the cost is $5 to be brought in cash on the day.
