OrphFund presents
A night of African Music, Food, Arts and Craft for the annual
AUCTION OF GIFTS AND PROMISES FUNDRASIER
The results focused charity, OrphFund, are hosting an evening of African food, music, auctions, raffles, drinks and more at the iconic Rose Street Artist Market, Fitzroy, to raise vital funds to support over 3,500 orphaned and
vulnerable children from Sierra Leone, Uganda and Kenya.
OrphFund Founder Steve Argent says, “The aim of the night is to
raise funds to help all of our projects across Sierra Leone, Uganda
and Kenya where we assist 3,500 children. We’ll be helping our
work get back on its feet Post-Ebola in Sierra Leone and we’ll be
creating farming and agricultural projects in all countries to take
further steps towards becoming self-sufficient’.
The event, the 5th OrphFund Auction in Melbourne, will feature
traditional African music performed by The Sound Mandala,
delicious vegetarian food, unique arts and crafts stalls and a range
of other surprises.
Steve has been humbled by the generosity offered by Melbourne residents and businesses so far ‘We have received over 150 private and business donations, ranging from handcrafted furniture, art, photography, accommodation packages, business services, dining experiences, to tickets and food products, it is a real honour to receive such glowing support.’
