MEMBERS of the SJD Foundation Ballarat have expressed their gratitude towards a local mechanics who have been regular donors to the organisation.<\/p>\n
Led by Phillip Kolarik, the team at Spanners and Sparks are donating two dollars from every vehicle they receive to the charity.<\/p>\n
SJD Foundation works to support children in need in the Ballarat region and Mr Kolarik said it was important for his business to support the community.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor a number of years, we were donating to the B1G1 initiative which is a global organisation that covers charities worldwide,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was great but post pandemic we\u2019ve seen ourselves firsthand some local families and the local community doing it tough.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe thought bringing it back home in our local community would be a lot more meaningful.\u201d<\/p>\n
The SJD foundation provides goods and services to children or families doing it tough.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt really gives us a bit of meaning behind what we do as it\u2019s going towards something tangible,\u201d said Mr Kolarik.<\/p>\n
\u201cSomething is better than nothing and if it helps out one family than they are better off than nobody getting any help at all.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe hope to grow the business ourselves and as we grow keep donating.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
