It's not about making money.....but
The idea behind the Sniffers is simple.....to have some fun with friends, but amid our chaos and merriment we actually make some money for good causes too!
If you had ever attended one of our meetings you would realise that this is nothing short of a miracle!
Below is a list of all the good causes we have contributed to over the years. Pretty much all this money has been raised from our rather good events, from which 100% of the profits go to a chosen cause.
