Cossie Club supports the local community
The Upper Hutt Cossie Club has made grants and donations to the local community totalling over $440,000 in the last 12 months.
The principal beneficiaries were the youth of Upper Hutt with 20 local residents aged between 16-21 years receiving $2500 Kick Start Scholarships to assist them to achieve their academic, cultural and sporting aspirations. Many local schools, kindergartens and sporting clubs also received grants.
The club is now accepting applications for this year’s scholarships. For more information please contact reception@cossieclubs.org.nz.
