Little by little, a little becomes a lot.
Every Monday afternoon for the past six years, Mollie Murcott has welcomed people into her Perth St home for a cup of tea and a game of cards, collecting $2 from each player as a donation to the Cancer Society.
This week, Mrs Murcott (88) dealt the last hand and made the group’s final donation to the Cancer Society’s North Otago branch. Over the years, she and her team of card players have raised more than $3770 for the organisation.
Mrs Murcott lost her husband Harry Murcott and daughter Marie Thorp to cancer, so it was a cause close to her heart – and it was “amazing” how the $2 donations had added up over the years, she said.

NEW YORK - Carnival celebrations may be scaled back this year but as long as you have an appetite, you can still celebrate some of New York City s tastiest Mardi Gras traditions.
In Greenpoint, Brooklyn, which is home to New York s largest Polish population, that tradition comes in dessert form: paczki, which are similar to doughnuts. It s heavier than a traditional doughnut and it s filled with different fillings like raspberry jams with seeds, chocolate with custard, chocolate with powder on it, or rose jam, Peter Pan Bakery co-owner Donna Siafakas said.
