The Guelph GoGo Grandmothers (4Gs) are set to host the first of its two major spring-time activities to raise funds and awareness for The Stephen Lewis Foundation (SLF), beginning with the 2013 Hats Off for the African Grandmothers, an Afternoon Tea, Silent Auction and Crazy Hats competition.
Last year, with the wonderful support from the friends of 4Gs and the Guelph community, the group were able to send $5000 directly to the SLF for the Grandmothers raising orphaned grandchildren in Africa.
The event takes place on April 27 at the Dublin St. United Church auditorium, from 1pm to 4 pm.
The Crazy Hat competition will be divided into categories ranging from elegant to crazy. See website for details.
For those unable to attend, donations to the SLF are welcome, and those above $20 are eligible for a tax receipt.
Tickets are $20 and available at The Book Shelf or through any 4Gs member, or email 4ggggs@gmail.com, or online at www.gggg.ca.
