Whanganui North Rotary Club's biggest fundraiser - the annual Christmas trailer raffle - has had to be cancelled this year because of Covid-19 restrictions on ticket sales.
The organisation's high-profile fundraiser has been carried out by the Rotary Club for more than 10 years.
Proceeds of the raffle have traditionally been used to fund local projects, particularly those in support of young people.
"Rotary members are disappointed that, this year, Covid restrictions mean sales of raffle tickets cannot be made in the usual face-to-face manner outside various supportive city businesses," Whanganui North Rotary Club president John Tindle said.
"The decision to cancel the trailer raffle for 2021 has not been made lightly as it has been a popular project with both club members and the public who have been very generous with their support."
