The Rotary Club of Holdfast Bay was recently the proud recipient of both the Premier’s Community Activity Award and the Premier’s Community Service Distinction Award for 2021 for our club’s signature project ‘Locals Doing it Tough Food Drive’.

 

These awards were presented by Premier Steven Marshall and the Hon Stephen Patterson - Member for Morphett at the Service Clubs Association of South Australia (SCASA) annual awards luncheon on October 31 and were accepted by Club Secretary Kim Harvey.

 

SCASA comprises service clubs from across our state including Rotary, Lions, Zonta, Apex, Kiwanis and Soroptimist International.

 

Our biannual food drives support the work of local outreach programs in Holdfast Bay that provide emergency food relief and support for individuals and families who require immediate assistance. In the last 12 months our Club has collected and distributed over $36,000 worth of goods with the help of local businesses, other community partners, and volunteers.
