fundraising

Over the last few months, we have received many phone calls and emails from schools, community groups and kindies asking if our retailers be interested in participating in fundraising events through trade and market nights. We are thrilled at these requests as it validates the quality and workmanship of our stallholders and their products. We are happy to distribute details of such events to our stallholders and if you email us, we can pass your event information on to our stallholders. 

Alternately, if you are looking for ways to fund raise without the hassle - why not organise a luncheon, brunch or morning tea at theEverton Park Hotel on market day, and have your event goers browse the markets. Why search high and low for stallholders when we have them all there waiting for you! We are happy to help with raffle prizes through donation of goods or market cash. Some stallholders will offer special discounts to event goers too! What a simple no fuss way of organising an event!


Our most recent event last night at All Saints Parish school saw 7 of our retailers showcased, with special mention to Maggie ofmagsbags, who had a fantastic night's trade selling almost out of all her bags - happy sewing Mag this week for next weekend's designers emporium market! Leasl from My Cheeky Monkey's stole the show by selling almost all of her product line! And, Lisa and Sharon of Cute as Buttons also had a fabulous night - after madly restocking from massive sales at the Eaton's Hill Kindy Trade night. Well done girls!


Other trades shows and markets our stallholders have attended or have been asked to attend include the Red Hill Fair, Chapel Hill School Market night and St Lucia Kindy Melbourne Cup Luncheon. We are always happy to support!
