Supporting our Local Community
We believe in playing a major role in our local community and to this end support health research, many sporting groups and local endeavours that are helping the local region grow.We have been involved with the Australian Red Cross Blood Service Clash of the Suits blood drive since its inception 4 years ago, winning in 2007, 2008 and 2010.
AFS joined forces with the Bendigo Weekly, providing a monthly sports grant to assist with the development of sporting talent in the region. Specifically these are up and coming athletes who, without additional finance, may not be able to reach their full potential. The company has donated $20,000 to local athletes to date.
