Bert Dennis, Founding Chairman of Dennis Family Corporation, and his wife Dawn came along and enjoyed chatting with all the recipients.
“Our Community Funds have been operating since 2002 and it’s always a pleasure to come along and meet the people who are working hard for the benefit of their local community,” said Mr Dennis.
“These organisations are essential components of building a community. We see the importance of providing funds in the early stages to enable community groups to grow and develop social harmony.”
In the 16 years that Dennis Family Corporation has been operating Community Funds at its current and past residential developments, more than $600,000 has been distributed to worthy organisations, assisting people of all ages.
