Dandenong Ranges Group will hold a benefit dinner for Oxfam Australia, catered by MVHS Catering, who are members of Sri Vakrathunda Vinayagar Hindu temple of The Basin.
The dinner is set for Saturday 27 June, 6.45pm, at Tecoma Uniting Church hall, 1566 Burwood Hwy, next to the primary school.
Despite - or perhaps because of - the terrible humanitarian crisis unfolding in Sir Lanka due to recent intense fighting, it is good to honour our freedom and appreciate the beauty and cuisine of another culture, while at the same time raising money for Oxfam's work and advocacy in Sri Lanka, India and elsewhere.
The Oxfam group has formed a close relationship with temple members, who are registered caterers. They will prepare an authentic four-course Indian vegetarian meal.
Complementing the dinner are two beautiful entertainment acts: young Indian Classical dancers and Sri Lankan-born singer-songwriter Suzete Herft who performed to standing ovations at the National Folk Festival this year.
Cost is a moderate $25 per head, drinks included, in this non-alcohol venue.
Seating is limited and bookings must be pre-paid by Tuesday, 23 June.
Please phone Judy on 9754 7090 or Kathy on 9755 1906 for bookings and payment advice.
