Woolworths BBQ

The BBQ was a great success with over $800 banked which included $181 in public donations above the $2.50 per sausage cost. Many people from the general public were genuinely interested in the group- especially when we informed them 100% of their donation ends up directly in assistance to Malawians.
Woolworths went out of their way to be very accommodative and kept the sausages and bread in storage to be taken just as we needed it. At the end of the day they credited us with the unused portion which avoided us incurring any wastage. Woolworths staff at all times were extremely helpful, very friendly and an absolute pleasure in their communications. Nothing was a problem to them including setting up and closing down. The young people involved at the store could not have been more helpful and bent over backwards for us and it was a pleasure to receive such a high quality service.
