 SOUTHERN Peninsula Community Support CEO Jeremy Maxwell says a “huge thank you” to the Sorrento Boomerang Bags team for its $2000 donation to the centre.

The team raises money by hand-making and selling reusable bags with the dual aim of reducing the amount of plastic in the community and raising money for community causes, such as Southern Peninsula Community Support.

“These guys have supported us over a number of years and are great contributors to our community,” Mr Maxwell said.

“As CEO I find it inspiring to have people who are so committed to helping their community that they find a way to do it that’s meaningful to them.

Joan Little also volunteers in our fresh food program.”

Those interested in making the bags can call Boomerang Bags Mornington Peninsula Collective, 0417 467 734.

Southern Peninsula Community Support is at 878 Point Nepean, Rosebud, call 5986 1285.
