Careflight dinner raises $4500

A fundraising dinner held at Ocean Beach Surf Club on Saturday, November 13, has raised $4500 for CareFlight.

At the dinner, Mr Andy Moses of Umina recalled seeing his then two-year-old son, Reuben, run over by a car on West St, Umina, - "a parent's worst nightmare".

CareFlight community engagement coordinator Mr John Ebbott spoke about how Mr Moses would have been excused for getting on with his life and just taking care of his family.

However, Mr Ebbott said, while Reuben was still in intensive care and his prognosis uncertain, Mr Moses contacted CareFlight and proposed a fundraising event to help recoup the costs of Reuben's treatment.

Mr Moses, with the assistance of Good News Church, organised a fundraising dinner and with the support of local businesses and the community, has raised more than $4500 to assist the charity's medical services.

Entertainment was provided by Central Coast Brass Roots and Peter Irvine, Co-Founder of Gloria Jean's Coffee, gave an inspirational talk about the importance of having vision both for your personal and business lives.

Member for Robertson Ms Deborah O' Neill and Member for Wyong Mr David Harris also gave their support.
