Roz Cull and Barbara Steentjes celebrate raising money for breast cancer research and awareness at a Pink Ribbon Breakfast in Cromwell.

The Cromwell Town and Country Club was a haze of pink yesterday for the second annual charity event in the town.

About 80 brightly-coloured people attended the breakfast, which raised $2100 for the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation.

Organiser Carmel McDowall said it was a "fantastic'' turnout.

"It's great that we can raise money but also have a fun morning out.''

It is one of hundreds of similar events across the country this month which have raised more than $200,000 for the foundation.
