Last week, 60 members of the Shore community came together to celebrate the Year of the Snake with a special dinner hosted by the Shore Foundation and the Lions Club Compassion, led by Shore parents Mr and Mrs Michael and Michelle Lam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The night raised over $10,000 to assist the Shore Foundation\u2019s drive to create more means-tested bursaries. The funds from this particular night will help families with a refugee background make the most of an opportunity to attend Shore. This opportunity has already been granted to one such family, and they make up but one of the 85 families the Shore Foundation assists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Chinese New Year dinner welcomed outgoing Federal MP Mr Paul Fletcher as the Guest of Honour, and he gave a wonderful overview of his time in parliament and the ever-changing and vibrant nature of our community. Ms Gisele Kapterian and Mr Scott Yung \u2013 both candidates in the next Federal election \u2013 were also guests. Both are examples of people willing to put up their hands and serve our wider community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evening\u2019s focus was that of service and the benefits we not only give by doing such service but also by what we receive. As we all face the year ahead, its challenges and busyness, let us always remember those we can help and serve – uplifting others while enriching our own community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to everyone who attended this inaugural dinner, donated prizes and supported the Shore Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr David Mason-Jones<\/strong>
Executive Director Shore Foundation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
