Mr ANOULACK CHANTHIVONG (Macquarie Fields—Minister for Better Regulation and Fair Trading, Minister for Industry and Trade, Minister for Innovation, Science and Technology, Minister for Building, and Minister for Corrections) — Ingleburn's Rotary Club has been a staple of the local community for over 45 years now, committed to improving lives locally and nationally. Particularly, the club should be praised for its IngleMinds and Gift of Hope programs. IngleMinds is a committee dedicated to health and wellbeing among youth, elderly and the homeless, which hosts RU Ok? Day events and collaborates with the local retirement home to run craft and health workshops. The club's Gift of Hope program provides hampers, necessities and gifts to local families in temporary accommodation. To date, they've provided 17 families with support. The work of the club stretches across many other fields as well, priding themselves on supporting young artists and local youth, being sponsors for fighting cancer and working alongside local refuges and shelters. At the 2026 Campbelltown City Council Australia Day Awards, the club's ongoing and valuable work was recognised, receiving the 2026 Award for Community Group Initiative of the Year. The award acknowledges the club's long-standing community contributions, and the significant difference made to the lives of so many. I extend my congratulations to all involved.
