Pinewood Community Pitch Night 2019
On Wednesday 13 November we held our 3rd Pinewood Community Pitch night at the Mulgrave Country Club in Wheelers Hill.
Along with our generous pitch partners we gave away a huge $60,000 to 15 selected finalists! Each finalist had 4 minutes in which to 'pitch' their community-based project to the room and we were blown away by their efforts.
At the conclusion of the pitches it was then up to the pitch partners, our directors and staff to distribute their funds to the worthy participants.
The tally of amounts is as follows:
- Radio Lollipop Monash - $6,700
- Waverley Woodworkers - $6,550
- ROBWC - $6,500
- Chinese Performing Arts Development Inc - $5,650
