Club chairperson Ena Schmidt said, “This event is in aid of Doctors Without Borders, and we believe that the money we gather today for this charity will be helping the amazing work they do.”
Together with a small entry fee, raffle tickets were sold where entrants stood the chance to win hampers with various goods donated by the Northcliff community.
The club planned to raise at least R1 500 in donations on the night.
