The club's funds raising tally is now at $16,570
******
Hill Top Northern Villages Cricket Club will run a fundraiser for the local RFS brigades in the Northern Villages.
More than $11,000 has been raised in 24 hours after HVNCC posted the message of support on its Facebook page.
HNVCC first grade player Simon Reid said the committee thought it would be a good idea to give back to the community.
"Our club is in the middle of the fires at the moment," he said.
"Team mates have been impacted.
"We just want to put a barbecue on and fundraise. Every club has made a donation which is great.
"Plus Fitness have donated $4000. I asked for a $100 and they said they will match our amount we are trying to raise."
The fundraising initiative will run across the first grade T20 weekends in January 2020.
The local brigades include:
- Colo Vale RFS
- Hill Top RFS
- Balmoral RFS
- Yerrinbool RFS
If you would like to donate to the fundraiser or to see a list of donations made, please visit the Hill Top Northern Village Cricket Club page.
