Supporting Our Community
We're working with local sporting clubs, volunteer groups & charitable organisations to give back & grow the community of Cronulla.
From the 1st September 2023 - 31st August 2024, our club worked with a number of wonderful organisations and donated approximately $354, 655 to the local community (through ClubGRANTS, Sponsorships, Donations and In-Kind Support). View all of the worthy recipients of support here.
