Third Annual Ladies' Lunch: 25 July

For the third year, Kells will host a ‘Christmas in July’ lunch for ladies in Wollongong to raise funds for ovarian cancer research. In its first year the lunch attracted 100 ladies, last year there were more than 200 and this year we have moved to a bigger venue because we’re expecting 400 attendees!

In the past two years Kells has raised more than $30,000 for ovarian cancer research and this year the firm is hoping to make around $40,000 from this one lunch alone!

Come along and bring lots of friends!

The lunch will be held on Wednesday 25 July at The Lagoon Seafood Restaurant, Wollongong . Every attendee will receive a goodie bag!

Invitations are being printed, so you can register your interest in this lunch by emailing Joe Lyons. We are currently seeking donations of items which can be used during the lunch for prizes and sold at auction. If you can help please email Joe Lyons.

Kells the Lawyers raises more than $28,000 for Ovarian Cancer Research!

Kells recently hosted its third annual ladies lunch, to raise vital funds for ovarian cancer research, at the Lagoon Seafood Restaurant in Wollongong.

The room was buzzing as the 217 ladies who attended the lunch pitched in and helped raise more than $28,000 for GO Fund’s ‘Karen Campaign’, a fundraising challenge for law firms in memory of talented lawyer Karen Ehrlich, who died in 1996 from ovarian cancer.

Thank you to all the ladies who attended the lunch and to our generous sponsors. Without your support, the event would not have been such an outstanding success!
