Community Spotlight – Clontarf Foundation
The Clontarf Foundation enhances education, discipline, life skills, self-esteem, and employment opportunities for young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men. The Wests Group, through its ClubGRANTs initiative, proudly supports this mission with a $10,000 donation to the Toronto Clontarf academy in the Lake Macquarie LGA.
This support enables the Clontarf Foundation to provide mentoring, behavioural coaching, and lifestyle guidance to almost 100 young men through fitness sessions, community volunteering, employment forums, and homework groups.
The Clontarf Foundation’s impact extends beyond the individual participants, benefiting the entire community and local area.
