Seniors Week funding announced
Three Ballina Electorate organisations have been awarded funding under the 2007 NSW Seniors Week Grants Program, Ballina MP Don Page announced today.
Mr Page said the programs would be held during NSW Seniors Week from 11-18 March 2007.
- Alstonville Adult Learning: $500 for the ‘Drawing from the Right’ program
- Crowley Village: $1000 for ‘Crowley fun walk n wheel’
- Tintenbar Community Aid Network: $500 for a ‘Meet, greet and join in’ seniors morning tea and information day.
Mr Page said these projects gave seniors an opportunity to have some fun, explore new activities and record their reflections during the busy Seniors Week.
“Senior members of our community make a valuable contribution to the area,” Mr Page said.
“Seniors Week can only be a success with the support and participation of local organisations.
“I congratulate each of the grant recipients for their participation through vibrant and innovative projects.”
