Members of the MX-5 Club of NSW have helped raise money for two separate causes as they made their way down to Kiama for High Tea on 7 December 2023.
The club, for owners and fans of Mazda’s MX-5, from all across NSW made their way to our shores, including members from Sydney chapters, the Illawarra, and of course, Kiama.
More than a third of the MX-5 Club are women, and there were more than 32 women who attended on the day, bringing 20 different MX-5s to High Tea at the Joyce Wheatley Centre in Kiama.
Proceeds from the event go to CareFlight, a non-profit aeromedical organisation that undertakes pre-hospital and medical retrieval efforts using NSW Ambulance helicopters.
The event was also to help bring awareness to the Club’s participation in the 2024 Shitbox Rally, a major fundraising effort for the Cancer Council of Australia.
Drivers from the club will get behind the wheel of Margot The Tarago as it travels 3500 kilometres in seven days from Adelaide via Uluru to Perth.

The Club initially set out to raise $5000 for the Cancer Council, but has already raised more than $11,000 with many months left to go.
