A massive thank you to our community for their kind generosity and ongoing support.

This impressive amount was predominantly raised through our weekly Friday Night Meat Tray.

Announcing the total amount raised in April and who we’ll be raising funds for throughout May:

With a massive thank you to our community for their kind generosity, we are proud to announce we raised a total of $1,057 for The Good Friday Appeal during the month of April.

Head down to The Grand on Friday nights to help us raise funds and awareness for a different charity each month. All proceeds raised will be donated at the end of the month.

Throughout the month of May, we will be raising funds and awareness for: Jake Habel

The charity specifically chosen is for a local Warrandyte family currently going through a difficult time.

Jake is an amazing, adventurous young man who has recently been diagnosed with Leukaemia. Jake has recently started chemotherapy which has taken a significant toll. The GoFundme (linked below) aims to try and alleviate some of the financial stressors so Jakes family can focus on being there for him 100% of the time.

Can’t make our Friday Night Meat Tray Raffle? You can donate directly to The Habel Family HERE!

Adding to our commitment to the environment, we welcome Mil-tek cardboard baler and waste compactor to our venue. 

This reduces our carbon footprint and improves our sustainability targets to minimise the number of waste collections weekly.

In addition to our BottleCycler, we are excited to have two of Mil-Tek’s products on board.  

Head to our ‘Community‘ page to discover the local organisations and charities we sponsor yearly, or support through raffles and donations. On this page, you can also find the impressive statistics we have already saved the environment with BottleCyler.

This is a small, yet vitally important, way that we are supporting our community and acknowledging the impact that we all have on climate change.

Here’s our team training upon installation and our two new Mil-Tek products at The Grand:

We are thrilled to announce the return of our Friday Night Meat Tray launching this Friday 10th of March!

Head down to The Grand this Friday night to help us raise funds for charity. The Friday Meat Tray Raffle will continue every week from now!

Throughout the month of March, we will be raising funds and awareness for: The Good Box

The charity specifically chosen is ‘The Good Box’. An Australian Charity and social enterprise dedicated to helping people experiencing homelessness to receive vital resources with dignity.

Their mission is to abolish misconceptions surrounding homelessness to prevent isolation and increase communication. They provide beautifully packed boxes to those experiencing homelessness. These boxes are filled with quality, essential items such as food and hygiene products to help those experiencing homelessness to get through some tough times. As well as providing the boxes, they also run educational programs for schools and organisations to remove the stigma around homelessness, educate and connect.

Thank you to Brent Honey at Honey I’m Home for partnering with us to make a different through dance.
