Presidents Report from Natalie Jupe

Hello all,

Great news! We’ve been nominated to participate in the Grill’d Local Matters donation

program at Grill'd Manuka this month.

Every month, Grill’d donates $500 to local groups and asks their customers to decide who themoney goes to.

When customers buy a burger, they will receive a token to put into one of 3 jars representingdifferent groups. Whoever has the most tokens at the end of the month receives $300. Theother two groups receive $100 each.

To do your bit to help our cause, spread the word and head on down to Grill'd Manuka located at 40-42 Franklin Street, Manuka ACT 2603

Yours in Rotary, Natalie
