The 6th July was the inaugural of The Hippest Morning Club, in conjunction with Global 2 Local, which was held at The Social House on O’Reilly Merry Street in Benoni.
It was a well-attended and fun morning where women could come together for breakfast and learnt about chocolate pairing and sampled delicious chocolate from the chefs at Capsicum Culinary Studio (Boksburg). The morning was concluded with lucky draws and each guest walked away with a lovely goodie bag.
The Hippest Morning Club will be a monthly social event to put on your calendar, bringing new speakers to each event. They will continue to support and drive their chosen charity, Tambo Memorial Baby Pack Network. They are serving the community by distributing newborn baby packs to the Tambo Memorial Hospital’s Maternity, Neo-Natal and Neo-Natal ICU. Approximately 50 hampers are distributed weekly and the hampers are given to the new mommies personally.
