Thank you to everyone who supported the Hastings Karamu Rotary Club's Annual Cocktail Party Fundraiser for the benefit of the Rescue Helicopter Trust.
The charity fundraiser was a great success with over $70,000 being raised for the Rescue Helicopter Trust.
Each year it continues to amaze the Rotary Club and the Rescue Helicopter Trust how generous people are within the Hawke's Bay community. Special thanks to the sponsors, auction donors, raffle donors and the people who attended on the night.
Next year's Hastings Karamu Rotary Club's Cocktail Party Fundraiser will be the 20th event - which is a huge achievement and one that we are already looking forward to.
