The work Sunshine Coast charity No More Fake Smiles (NMFS) does to support young victims of abuse is life changing.

And now, community members are being called on to help the organisation continue its vital purpose by supporting its latest fundraising efforts.

In the process, they will go in to the draw to win a $17,500 diamond, which was kindly donated by Sunshine Coast resident Karen Lazare.

The total prize package of the raffle is valued at $23,000 with specialist jeweller Vanessa Nock of Uniqueness Designer Jeweller donating $5500 to help craft the 1.21-carat diamond into a stunning jewellery piece of the winner’s choice.

Funds raised via the raffle will support NMFS’s mental health therapy program and justice advocacy work.
