St John gets $8000 facelift

Dandenong’s St John Ambulance hall will receive an $8000 facelift.
A $7978 grant from the Federal Government Stronger Communities program will fund a repaint for the Attenborough Street building.
Isaacs MP Mark Dreyfus, who recommended the project for funding, said St John Ambulance was an organisation that all Australians knew and trusted.
This program provides grants between $5000 and $20,000 to projects that improve community participation and contribute to community vibrancy and viability.
