The event, organised by the Orange is the New Black Northern fundraising team hoped to raise $15,000 for Whitelion from the prison themed night held at the Penny Royal.

Co-organiser Jodie Walker said the event would impact the lives of youth at risk.

“All the funds raised from this particular event contribute to our community.

“Every dollar that we raise we know will be positively affecting the youth within our community.”

185 guests attended, contributing through donating prizes, purchasing tickets or bidding in silent and live auctions.
