New sponsor jumps on board Stand Like Stone

Lucindale business supports community foundation

Stand Like Stone Foundation CEO Roger Babolka was plesaed to be able to announce a new sponsor at the April Board meeting with Trans Australian Livestock and Freight Management joining the Stane Like Stone Foundation team. “We’re very pleased to have Trans Australian Freight come on board as a major supporter of the foundation,” Mr Babolka said.

“This is a strategic partnership, as it not only demonstrates Trans Australian Freight’s commitment to charitable giving, but it supports the foundation in creating stronger, more resilient, and prosperous communities in the Limestone Coast.”

Trans Australian Livestock and Freight Management is a Lucindale based business that commenced operations back in 1986. Since then, it’s continued to develop into an operation that has facilities throughout South Australia, Victoria, and New South Wales. Its range of services has also expanded over that time to now include livestock transport and general freight, fresh produce transport, bulk haulage, warehousing and regional distribution activities.

Trans Australian Freight managing director Damian Thornhill said they’d known about Stand Like Stone for some time now and have always been impressed by what they’ve been able to achieve for the Limestone Coast. “Trans Australian Freight has always supported its local community in various ways since the very beginning, but with supporting the foundation, we’re now able to do more for the whole Limestone Coast,” Mr Thornhill said. “It’s our way of giving back to the community which has supported us over our journey.”

“The foundation has been fortunate enough to be well supported with local sponsorship from the very beginning, including our seven local councils and many local businesses, such as Ray Scott Transport and Noel Barr Toyota,” Mr Babolka said.

“This type of support is, and always will be, critical to our ability in providing the level of assistance we need to provide for this region.”
