Just one of many events in the capital to raise money for Christchurch, a large contingent of the Chinese community in Wellington, along with Rotarians from the Rotary Club of Karori attended a banquet at the Grand Century Restaurant last evening to raise funds for Red Cross for the Christchurch Quake Appeal. Organized by prominent Chinese community leader, Tony Tong, father of dentist Adrian Tong, in our Karori Club, the dinner raised $14,711, through the collection of money around the tables on the night and the auction of pork meat to the gathering. A cheque was presented to the Red Cross.
