The Beaconsfield Bendigo Bank has thrown its weight behind the Rotary Club of Berwick, with a $5000 sponsorship deal for the coming year. The bank has been a strong supporter of the work Rotary does in the local community for many years and we are proud to be able to work with a community focused sponsor. 
 
Rotarians are volunteers, working selflessly for the community, and giving 100 percent of what they raise back to that community, said manager Andrew Gardner.  This philosophy marries perfectly with the way we as a bank want to be seen as evidenced by the work we ourselves do to promote community enhancement.
 
Mark Caulfield, President of the Berwick Rotary Club, said it was always pleasing to be acknowledged for the work Rotary does in the community.  This sponsorship will add to the funds we raise from our  Farmers and Craft Market, our Deb Balls, our Art Screen Hire business and Charity Golf day, amongst others, and be spent helping to do some pretty special community work.  Our particular focus at present is youth programs and mental health awareness. Our youth are our future and together Bendigo Bank and the Rotary Club of Berwick will be doing their best to make a difference.
 
After an evening with the Berwick Rotary Club it is understandable why our local community Bank is right behind us.  Our only problem, says Mark, is that we have more exciting and worthwhile projects than we have people to help complete them.  We are always happy to welcome new members. For inquiries on how you can join us as either a casual volunteer, an event specific volunteer or joining Rotary, please email David Button on david.button@rotaryberwick.org.
