Just on $1500 has been raised to help the new Wellington office of HIV peer support and advocacy organisation Body Positive pay the bills. Held in Wellington's Rush Bar on Saturday night, the fundraiser featured prizes for donated by sponsors and local businesses. As well as being won, some of the sponsored products were auctioned. Body Positive's Wellington manager Ron Irvine says the evening was "a fun-filled night and one those that attended enjoyed". He says Body Positive would like to acknowledge "all the organisations, individuals, and team players that helped make this fundraising night a successful one." And, Irvine says, he is especially appreciative of the input of the owners of Rush Bar who provided the venue and arranged the Quiz Master.
