Funds Raised for Bloomfield

The small band of volunteers from Bloomfield Hospital Auxiliary raised $6783 from their annual raffle. Their efforts included 500 volunteer hours over 23 days, selling tickets across Orange’s main shopping areas.

The funds raised by the Auxiliary will be used to provide Christmas gifts for patients on the Bloomfield campus, as well as emergency needs for acute patients, like clean socks & underwear.

Cr McRae who was invited to draw the raffle said, “This small group of volunteers punch above their weight when it comes to fundraising, with an amazing range of donations from local businesses and impressive ticket sales. I know their support is really valued by the staff and patients of Bloomfield campus. Many of the long-term patients don’t have connections with family or friends to celebrate Christmas, and the support provided by the Auxiliary gives them a real spark of joy.”

Well done Bloomfield Auxiliary!
