On Friday, the club donated $7761 which was split between Clare's Angels, the Pink Angels and the Dubbo support group for NSW/ACT Guide Dogs.
Kangaroos Rugby Club president Gerald Webster said the majority of the money was raised from auctioning off the rugby jerseys from ladies day.

Judy Morse from the Dubbo Guide Dogs support group said she was "over the moon" to receive the donation.
"It's our first time helping the Dubbo Roos and its such a wonderful opportunity for us. We're a really small group and fundraising can be difficult at the moment," Ms Morse said.
The money will go to the Guide Dogs headquarters to be used for visual and training aids - including guide dogs - as well as to provide services for the blind and visually impaired.
"I was thinking this morning, 'how lucky are we to be able to go and watch the rugby?' Imagine if you couldn't," Ms Morse said.
