Keep away the winter chills and help raise money for the Geelong Hospital Appeal by hosting your own hot chocolate morning/afternoon tea and making a donation. You can also visit one of the participating cafes around town who will be donating a portion of their hot chocolate takings on the day.

In 2011, 60 cafes as well as schools, workplaces and community groups participated and together raised $19,000 for the Geelong Hospital Appeal.

Participation kits will be available in February 2012 from the Barwon Health Foundation. It is an easy and fun way to be involved!
