Cash boost for 4Cs

4CS PAKENHAM building fund received a $2000 boost from Ultimate Tiles Pakenham and Fountain Gate.
In a show of ongoing support for the charity, Ultimate Tiles managing director Rick Somers has, for the 7th year, donated funds instead of giving gifts to clients this Christmas.
“We want to get some momentum going on the building fund,” Mr Somers said.
4Cs Pakenham will relocate in March 2010, and is aiming to raise $100,000 to furnish the new offices.
4Cs director Jeni Mathieson said that the 4Cs is on its way to reaching this goal, but still needed the support from the community.
“We need more support, not only funds but also tradies interested in donating their time and materials,” Ms Mathieson said.
Centre manager Sue Friend was also there to accept the award on behalf of 4Cs Pakenham.
