Twice the help for fireys

05/03/2009

TWO Cranbourne mothers have organised a fund-raiser for local CFA crews this Saturday.
Jacqui Quigley and Marie Scuderi, who have branded themselves the VIM (Very Important Mums) Twins, have organised this Saturday’s event at the Cranbourne Homemaker Centre.
Some of the activities will include a jumping castle, face painting and a live band.
Money raised from the event will go to the Casey Group of Fire Brigades, to help CFA crews purchase new trucks or better equip themselves.
The two mothers said they were inspired to help after the events of Black Saturday.
The Cranbourne Homemaker Centre Casey Group of Fire Brigades CFA Fund-raiser will be held at the centre on Saturday from 8am to 4pm.
