The Rotary Club of Corowa has received $1233 from the IGA Community Chest to support their ongoing project at Whitehead Street Wetlands.
Members of the Rotary Club met at Waldron’s IGA last Thursday for a coffee and presentation with IGA manager Craig Waldron.
“The Rotary Club of Corowa are a wonderful community organisation who are doing great work within our local community,” Craig told the Free Press.
“The rehabilitation of the Whitehead Street Wetlands is a very important project for our community and we are very pleased to be able to support Rotary with their efforts.”
Rotarian Gary Poidevin OAM thanked the local supermarket for their support.
“IGA are great supporters of Rotary from the BNS Ball, monthly markets and various catering activities. We appreciate their support and look forward to continue working with them in the future,” he said.
The IGA Community Chest Trust raises money through a contribution from the sale of products with an IGA Community Chest Ticket and Community Co products in store. Contributions are made throughout the year, with all funds raised, through the Community Chest Program in Corowa, being donated back to the local community.
The team at Waldron’s Fresh selects a community group, or organisation, to donate the funds to each year. This year the funds raised will go to the Corowa Lions Club and the Corowa Rotary Club.
