Money raised during the Wanganui Car Show is going to the local Women's Refuge - and chairwoman Paula Wade says will come in handy as the festive season approaches.
"The festive season is a taxing time on our organisation," she said while accepting the $2475 donation from the Wanganui branch of the Motor Trade Association. "This donation is absolutely wonderful."
The car show at Springvale Stadium featured $20 million worth of classic, muscle and sports cars and attracted more than 3500 people.
