Last week we announced the lucky winner of our ‘Drive to the Top for Hope Street”competition.

A massive Congratulations to Mr. Ross Clasby of Victoria! We hope you enjoy the amazing haul of gear kindly donated by our friends at ARB 4×4 Accessories, Darche, Narva Australia, Yamaha Power Equipment, and Pat Callinan’s 4×4 Adventures

When we first launched the competition we set a target to generate $5000 in donations to help Hope Street continue giving people the helping hand they need through difficult times. Thanks to your generosity we smashed that target and raised a whopping $7553.37!

We want to thank each and every one of you who entered for your important contribution. Each dollar we collected was donated to HopeStreet Woolloomooloo. The Hope Street team do great work supporting the homeless and underprivileged who are marginalised in inner city Sydney. Many of these individuals are at risk of or experiencing addiction, mental health and legal issues, in addition to having diminished employment opportunities.

We’d also like to thank our kind sponsors for donating such excellent prizes for this great competition. Here’s a little more info about each sponsor, and if you’d like to know more head on over to their sites and see what awesome gear they have to offer.
