Zonta Stanthorpe members stuffed and finished sewing 30 breast cushions.
The breast cushion assembly is co-ordinated by Desleigh Volpato. These cushions together with Drainage Bags provided by Boomerang Bags will be delivered to St Vincent’s Hospital in the next couple of weeks for their mastectomy patients.
Cushions such as these were found to be of value for a member of Zonta who herself had breast surgery. It can be tucked under the arm for support while sleeping, it can be used for protection from the pressure of a seatbelt, it can be worn under a jacket or blouse when going shopping so that those who bump into you with their elbow or handbag don’t hurt you. Cushions are also available from the local Cancer Support Group.
Members have also been busy organising the 25th Anniversary Dinner Dance to be held on Saturday 21 September at Granite Belt Brewery. It is sure to be a fun night with a delicious two course meal, music by Cole Train and much more for only $85 per person.
Any profits will go towards fighting domestic violence. Tickets can be purchased online by following this link events.humanitix.com/zonta-stanthorpe-25th-anniversary-dinner-dance/tickets or tickets are also available from Gracious Giving Stanthorpe. Hope to see many of you there.
