Issue:

Mackay and Whitsunday Life

Cr Column Councillor Fina Vasta

I would like to talk about one of the Burdekin’s local not for profit organisations, the Zonta Club Burdekin Inc, that is actively working on a number of local community projects.  
In the coming months, Zonta, in partnership with the Red Rose Foundation, Burdekin Shire Council and the Men’s Shed, will place a number of Red Benches in prominent locations in Ayr and Home Hill. Keep an eye out for them - you won’t miss them!!
The presence of a Red Bench in a public location aims to raise awareness of domestic violence and provide an opportunity for this important issue to remain visible.
If you wish to learn more about Zonta and their exciting local community and international work, follow the club activities on Facebook or you can make arrangements to attend a monthly dinner meeting which is held every second Tuesday of the month commencing at 6:00pm at the Ayr Anzac Memorial Club.
