A brunch with a difference has raised $15,000 - possibly a record amount from Northland - to help with breast cancer research.
The Whangārei Heads community came together last week to support a very worthy cause and held a Pink Ribbon brunch to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation.
Jodie and Gary Marlow offered up their newly built house and yoga shala (studio), high on top the hill overlooking Whangārei Harbour, as a venue for the Replenish Pink Ribbon Brunch.
Jodie Marlow, along with Jodie Hannam, had worked tirelessly over the previous three weeks to create something that they had both decided would be "fabulous".
Altogether 120 women descended on the Marlow home for an afternoon of delicious food, bubbles, a fashion show for Polwarth's Design.
