Flea market offers fund-raising value
The monthly Steel Bridge community market offers a useful fund-raising avenue for the public
THE monthly Steel Bridge community market offers a useful fund-raising avenue for the public, local businesses, schools and charities.
This month’s market will be held on Saturday at the Steel Bridge in Meerensee from 9am to 3pm and locals can once again take advantage of some bargain buys.
The market is a fund-raising initiative of the 1st Richards Bay Sea Scouts Club.
‘We encourage all clubs and groups to use this market to raise funds for their projects,’ says market coordinator Liz Wood.
‘It is a free service to all the clubs and schools and if each learner can collect one item which can be sold at the market, those funds will help the schools tremendously.
‘Throne Room Ministries had five stalls last year and raised much needed funds for their mission trips and we invite other churches to come on board as well.
‘A new mobile coffee boutique will also be joining us from this month and we are still looking for members to operate pancakes and boerewors rolls stands.
‘The recession has posed challenges for many of our charities and non-profit organisations and we are inviting them to take advantage of the market.’
