The Rainbow Fund needs volunteers to help collect donations at the cabaret fundraisers on Sunday, August 3.
Pride Sunday promises a fabulous afternoon of entertainment, with two cabaret fundraisers for the Rainbow Fund taking place in the Gay Village.
Lola Lasagne will host the annual spectacular bash at Legends whilst over in George St, Davina Sparkle will host the new, equally lavish, spectacle in the Cabaret Zone outside the Queen’s Arms.
Both events commence at 3 p.m.
A small army of volunteers is needed by the Fund to “shake buckets” at both events throughout the afternoon.
Chris Cooke, Chair of the Fundraising Committee at the Rainbow Fund is coordinating the volunteers.
Chris said: “Pride Sunday is such an important afternoon for us so I am hoping that we’ll get a good number of volunteers who can spare a couple of hours to lend a hand. It promises to be an amazing afternoon of top class cabaret, benefiting the whole community through fundraising for the Rainbow Fund. I cannot wait”
Paul Elgood, Chair of the Rainbow Fund, said: “We are grateful to Chris for leading the team of volunteers at these events. It is literally a case of the more people who can help, the more money can be raised. We have to make it easy for people to give at these events, and the key is for an effective team of volunteers to support this. We are all volunteers at the Rainbow Fund, so we all help in various ways.
“Can I also take this opportunity to thank Lola, Davina, Tony Chapman and all at Legends for supporting us again this year. Lola and Davina do so much for us and Tony’s contribution to the local LGBT charitable sector cannot be surpassed.”
