Caroline Springs’ Rotary club is among the community organisations and charities across Melbourne’s north-west to share in $90,000 from the Tobin Brothers.
The Rotary club received $1000 for its Rotary Youth Leadership Award, a leadership experience for local youths to build connections and learn new skills.
District youth chair Dr Nivedita Nagarale spoke on radio station Magic 1278 and said the donation would go towards an initiative that invested in young people in the community.
“It’s an internationally run program by Rotary clubs all over the world. Our club is sponsoring a candidate to help develop their leadership qualities and strengthen their personal development,” Dr Nagarale said.
Caroline Springs president Ronald Moss said the generosity of Tobin Brothers was a heart warming gesture which was greatly appreciated.
“They wanted to give back to local community volunteers and schools by recognising the amazing work they do,” he said.
Foodbank St Albans, St Albans Barefoot Bowls Club, Stevensville Primary School and St Albans Secondary College were also recipients of the donation in the Brimbank area.
