Jellis Craig has thrown its support behind Spud’s Game: A Match for Mental Health for another year, helping St Kilda Football Club raise vital funds for mental health programs run through the Danny Frawley Centre.
As part of Jellis Craig’s commitment to give back to the community, 10 per cent of total sales commissions for St Kilda members whose properties are listed with its Bayside Glen Eira office will go directly towards the DFC.
In its first year of partnership with the Saints, Jellis Craig’s donated commissions saw $27,987.15 go directly towards furthering Spud’s legacy.
The Danny Frawley Centre delivered over 200 mental health programs in its inaugural year, directly engaging over 8000 people ranging from young athletes, corporates and members of the community.
"We are proud to support the Danny Frawley Centre with continued support of $10,000 this year," Jellis Craig Partner & General Manager Rudi Sims said.
"We also very grateful to be part of Spud's Lunch, with Senior Auctioneer Andre O'Brien and Partner Kosta Mesaritis calling the charity auction to helped raise over $275,000 on the day.
