Sunshine Business Association is looking to reward locals for getting vaccinated.

The association will run an eight-week promotion, giving away $4000 worth of gift vouchers to spend at local shops.

People can take part by sharing their vaccine photos via the Love Sunshine Businesses Facebook and Instagram pages.

Ten randomly selected winners each week will receive a $50 voucher.

SBA president Vu Du said the association wants ocal businesses and retail to open up again, but to do that, everyone needs to be vaccinated.

“Brimbank is one of the lowest vaccinated areas in the state and we want to help change that and reward our customers when they bravely get fully vaccinated,” he said.

“Our promotion – Fully-Vaxxed in Sunshine – will reward 80 local customers with $4000 worth of Sunshine gift vouchers to spend in our Sunshine businesses. It’s a win-win for us all.

“We have had to cancel many events this year due to lockdowns such as the Sunshine Lantern Festival and the Sunshine Halloween Street Party, events that we stage for the community to visit Sunshine and enjoy our businesses’ hospitality.

“To get back to what we love doing again we need to bite the bullet and get the jab now.”
