Charity/Community Support

At GVH we feel strongly about the role we play in the community. Some of the pro bono work that we are proud to provide is the care of injured strays and injured and orphaned wildlife. We support the medical treatment of guide dogs, hearing dogs and Delta Society companion dogs.

Charity Support

GVH is supporting the Sony Foundation together with CanTeen (Youth Cancer) in their ‘You Can’ campaign to raise $15million over the next three years to establish youth cancer centres of excellence across Australia.

Helping is easy, simply donate your old mobile phones in the You Can collection box in our reception.

The phones will be recycled for reuse. They will be refurbished and resold. Where they can’t be reused, the phones will be broken down into their constituent parts and recycled by licensed operators in Australia.

Any SIM cards left in phones will be destroyed. All information inside the donated phones is also completely erased. Phone chargers are accepted. However accessories cannot be accepted.

For more information please visit: www.youcan.org.au

We have also provided support in the form of financial sponsorship and donations of equipment for animal welfare organisations in developing countries such as Nepal and Uganda, and for the Victorian bushfire emergency.

 Community

We are involved in community projects such as sponsoring the Dog Show at the Hunters Hill Moocooboola festival and we support the fund-raising activities of our local schools. We have been proud sponsors of junior soccer with the Gladesville Ravens soccer club. GVH has been a vital part of the local community since 1959, and we hope to continue being so long into the future.
