THE popular Berry Cup will once again raise money for the Noah's Ark children's charity at Kembla Grange tomorrow.

Noah's Ark is an early childhood intervention centre run by parents and community members.

The Cup meeting has raised around $200,000 for the charity in the past seven years, with $18,000 donated last year even after it was wiped out by equine influenza.

"All our sponsors paid their money last year so the charity didn't miss out and they are all back this year," organiser May Evans said.

"We are looking forward to a good day and we have about five buses heading to Kembla from Berry for the day."
