THREE local organisations that help provide support to the local community have been given a boost thanks to the Shepparton Chamber of Commerce and Industry, with each receiving a share in funds raised through the chamber’s recent Rosie Batty Luncheon.

FamilyCare, Marian Community VincentCare and Primary Care Connect each received a donation of $2,000, which will go towards each of the organisation’s programs to help continue the care they provide to the local community.

Shepparton Chamber of Commerce and Industry president, Carl Hainsworth said, “Having Rosie Batty here in Shepparton was a real treat. She spoke very well at the luncheon and was an inspiration to those who attended the sold-out event.

“Due to the nature of Rosie Batty’s story, the chamber thought it would be fitting that we donate the funds raised through the luncheon back to the community and we chose these three organisations because of the fantastic support they provide to the local community, in particular domestic violence.

“Chamber would like to thank everyone who attended the luncheon for helping to make this donation possible.”
