TLC Aged Care Noble Manor Recognises Sikh Volunteers Australia with Community Values Award

TLC Aged Care Noble Manor has proudly announced Sikh Volunteers Australia Inc. as the latest recipient of its quarterly Community Values Award. The award recognises the organisation's outstanding dedication and significant contribution to the well-being of the Noble Park community.

Sikh Volunteers Australia has been an unwavering pillar of support for those in need, providing free meals every Wednesday afternoon in the car park of the local Coles store in Noble Park. The award celebrates their tireless work, which also extends to travelling to areas impacted by natural disasters like bushfires and storms to provide critical food relief.

"We are incredibly grateful for the selfless actions of Sikh Volunteers Australia," said Mark Osborn, General Manager of TLC Aged Care Noble Manor. "Their commitment to the community is a testament to the power of kindness and the incredible impact a dedicated group can have on the lives of others. With a network of over 300 volunteers and an operation that has been running since 2017, their contribution is monumental. It is our privilege to recognise their efforts with our quarterly Community Values Award and a $1,000 donation to support their mission."

TLC Healthcare CEO and Managing Director Lou Pascuzzi said, “This initiative provides support where it’s needed the most. Our mission is to be leaders in innovative and integrated healthcare, renowned for providing well-being to our communities. The work the Sikh Volunteers Australia team is doing perfectly aligns with this so that together, we’re making a positive impact in the local communities we serve.”

Relying solely on community donations, Sikh Volunteers Australia provides between 2,500 and 4,000 free vegetarian meals per week. The organisation's profound impact was particularly evident in 2020 during the pandemic, when it provided 180,000 meals over 12 months.

The Community Values Award is part of TLC Aged Care Noble Manor's broader mission to foster a culture of care, respect, and inclusion in the local community.
