Over 220 people enjoyed a wonderful night at the Sea View Golf Club and raised over $143,000 towards the building of a new Endoscopy Centre in Madagascar.

Guests included the Ambassador to Madagascar, HE Jenny Dee, Nicola Forrest AO, Stephen Smith (past Minister of Foreign Affairs), Fran Logan (MLA), past and present Rotary of Crawley Presidents, and many long-time volunteers and supporters of ADFA.

Thank you to everyone who donated items for the auctions and raffle, and to the attendees for the lively bidding and the many cash donations. Your generosity prior to and on the night was very humbling.

To Digby Cullen, Julie Barker, the organising committee and volunteers on the night, a huge thank you for the many hours of hard work and congratulations on arranging such a wonderfully successful event.
