“A further six Mossman business owners sponsored our gift wrapping service and it really wouldn’t have been possible without everyone’s support,” Mr LeGriffon said.

“All proceeds go back to our local health service at Mossman Hospital and are used towards the purchase of specialised equipment and supporting improved patient care beyond the essentials,” he said.

“The Mossman and Douglas FOF volunteers hope to return with their gift wrapping services next year at both Mossman and Port Douglas and perhaps another monster raffle. 

“We’d like to thank all involved which includes the vision and hard work of the Mossman Supporting Small Business (MSSB) group and the Mossman and Douglas Friends of the Foundation Volunteer team,” he said.

The gift wrapping service was at the Town and Country Shopping Centre in Mossman (beside Prices Plus) and the Port Village Shopping Centre in Port Douglas (outside Coles Supermarket).

All money raised from gift wrapping and the raffle will go directly towards improving health services at the Mossman Hospital.
