🛒Last week we had the privilege of visiting the Bowral Uniting Church's Community Pantry that provides fresh and frozen meals for those in need.

🧊Through funds we raised at this year's International Women's Days Lunch they were able to purchase a much-needed large freezer to enable them to store more meals and help more people.

👏Thanks so much to all who attended the lunch and bought raffle tickets, to the amazing sponsors who donated prizes and to all our BWN members who support us financially as we supplemented the funds raised at the lunch so the Church could purchase the freezer they needed.
