Swan Hill Rotary Club has proudly presented Swan Hill Rural City Council's Youth Support team with a cheque of $500 to support local young people attending their annual summer youth camp.
Council's Youth Coordinator, William Burns thanked the Rotary Club and acknowledged their contribution to supporting local young people.
"This camp provides an immersive experience where participants can build essential life skills, develop their leadership potential, and gain confidence to actively contribute to their community in the future.
Alongside personal growth, the program offers young people the chance to make new friendships and connect with peers from across the region, creating networks that can last a lifetime," Mr Burns said.
Swan Hill Rotary Club President Damien Kelly highlighted the club's strong passion for empowering young people through opportunities like this camp, helping them grow, connect, and build confidence for the future.
"Our goal is to help young people discover their potential, develop self-confidence, and feel empowered to take on leadership roles in their schools, clubs, and communities.
"By supporting their participation financially, we're helping remove barriers so that every interested young person can attend," Mr Kelly said.
This initiative aligns with the Rotary Club's ongoing commitment to strengthening the local community and investing in its future leaders. Over the years, the club has supported a wide range of youth programs, scholarships, and community projects aimed at nurturing personal growth, civic responsibility, and lifelong learning.
Young people interested in attending future camps are encouraged to contact Youth Inc on 5036 2482 or drop into 50-52 Campbell Street.
