Everglades gives $2500 to CAPS

The Everglades Country Club has presented a cheque for $2500 to Umina's Child Abuse Prevention Service (CAPS).

The donation will help to pay the centre's running costs for the first half of the year, said CAPS Umina coordinator Ms Winsome Smith.

"We receive no regular Government funding and have to rely on our own efforts to raise money," she said.

"The generosity of The Everglades is very much appreciated and it's gestures like this that make our work possible."

The Everglades Ladies Golf Club has also made CAPS Umina their chosen charity for this year.

The $2500 cheque was presented to CAPS by Ms Judy Andrews on behalf of the club on Monday, March 10.
