HERITAGE Golf and Country Club last Friday donated a cheque for $3280 to Melba Support Services, which was a result of a recent fund-raiser held by the club. Heritage selected Melba as the local not-for-profit group to support.
Melba chief executive officer Glenn Foard said he was extremely grateful to be selected and added the money would be put to good use.
“Late last year, we had a group of people supported on holiday in the High Country,” he said.
“Late one afternoon, two staff members drove into town to get supplies and hit a deer. While both staff were hospitalised but later released, the bus was completely written off.” Melba’s transport fleet enables people to get to appointments, meet with family and friends, and to go to places of work and leisure.
