The Deepwater Older Women's Network has raise $1100 for Mary Mac's Place, Care4Coast and Allawah House through a fashion parade held earlier this month.

After the fashion parade, an afternoon tea with sandwiches, home-baked cakes, slices and biscuits was provided by the Deepwater network committee.
A lucky door prize was drawn followed by a raffle draw.
The Deepwater Older Women's Network's next event will be a Christmas raffle at Deepwater Plaza, Woy Woy, on December 13 and 14.
