Charities to benefit from PBN fundraiser
by Mornington Peninsula Magazine

Peninsula Business Networking is the longest-running business networking group on the Peninsula, having been in operation since 2006. Most of its members are micro or small-business owners or staff, and each month it runs an event – usually a networking gathering or workshop – to help connect business people on the Peninsula.

On Wednesday, July 19, it is holding its annual fundraiser at Escape Brewing in Rosebud from 6pm, and everyone’s welcome. Described as a ‘funraising’ event with a real community feel, it will include catering by Rosebud Secondary College.

When deciding where the money raised should go, PBN looked for organisations that were helping the community with food, clothing, mental health support and so on at a grassroots level. It settled on three charities with money earmarked for specific purposes: Orwil Street Community House for mental health consultations; Southern Peninsula Community Support for personal care items; and Saltbush Balnarring Beach to buy heaters for its cottages.
