SHOUT OUT !!! A HUGE Thanks goes out to these amazing people donating their services...
- DLA Phillips Fox Law Firm - Thankyou so much Amir Fitzhugh for guiding us through the forest!!! DLA Phillips Fox are providing us with pro bono legal advice in the following areas - corporations law, property law and taxation law....all very scarey areas for a small community organisation!
- Martin Carey, Director of Global Projects, is donating his construction project management skills to coordinating and overseeing the cafe fit out.
- Peter Macaluso, Managing Director of The CKC Group, who is donating his architectual services as well as snow balling the chain of giving. Amazing inspirational people!!!
- The Hoyts Corporation for providing us with a genreous rent free period and a heavily reduced rental rate on the cafe site. We are also looking forward to many mutual beneficial partnerships between the Hoyts Cinemas and this project. It's great to see our large corporations getting behind local communities and even joining forces to work together with small community groups in building up stronger local communities!
- Vic Lilli from Vic Lilli & Partners for not only providing his own engineering services for free but also for starting a chain of giving by others! Vic has been helping us through the quagmire of development consents, building processes and much more...
