Here’s a great story
We’ve put +$1.6 million back into local community projects. That’s at last count and it’s always growing.
Over the last 20+ years, we’ve distributed over $1,600,000 to local organisations, causes and projects throughout the Shoalhaven area. We are extremely proud of this and the amazing stories that come about because of this support.
We love telling stories of the projects we’ve funded, how they’ve impacted and enriched our local area, and contributed towards a thriving community.
