The money will be used to buy surgical equipment such as ear, nose and throat items valued at $61,700 and a cysto-nephro videoscope ($46,000), as well as an audiometer to test infant and children’s hearing ($6500).
The Wodonga Opportunity Shop made its first donation in 1989 while its Albury counterpart opened in 2014.
Sixty-nine volunteers work at the shops, which rely on community donations.
