Fundraiser turns spring cleaning into cash

Garbage may not be the most glamorous topic, but on April 22-24, the Gherkins turned trash into treasure with our Spring Fling in the Bin fundraiser.

Supporters were invited to purchase tickets for each garbage bag (or equivalent sized item) they deposited in our big bin. We sold out 170 tickets and raised $1600. (As a bonus several of us were inspired to do our spring cleaning!)

This fundraiser was made more successful due to our supportive bin supplier… so a big shout out to Bin There Done That Victoria! Not only did they waive fees, they delivered the bin and advised us on how to manage the event for success.
