Kororoit electorate

Luba GRIGOROVITCH (Kororoit) (14:46): (1101) In light of National Volunteer Week next week, my question is to the Minister for Carers and Volunteers. On that note I want to acknowledge my very good friends from Altona City Rotary Club, of which I was a member for many years, who are here today. This year’s theme is connecting communities and celebrates the power of volunteering to bring people together, so I ask the minister: how is the Victorian government supporting volunteer service organisations to continue their work and foster stronger, more connected communities across Kororoit? In my own electorate of Kororoit these organisations provide essential support through local projects, youth programs and charitable initiatives that make a real difference in people’s lives. Having been personally involved in community service, I have seen firsthand the incredible impact and magic that these groups achieve at a grassroots level. It is truly a privilege to welcome representatives of the Altona City Rotary Club to Parliament today, and I thank them for their ongoing commitment to and support for all of our communities and thank all volunteers here in Victoria.
