Harcourts ‘riding high for charity’

Helping out: Fruit’s Matt Podvinsek and his sponsored players.

Fruit Property agent Matt’s kicking goals with sponsorships of young Falcon players FRUIT Property agent Matt Podvinsek will swap his suit and mobile phone for sports gear and a meat pie to cheer on Geelong Falcons football team this year. Mr Podvinsek said his sponsorship of several Falcons footballers was a way of “giving something back to the community”. “I’ve always had a great sense of community,” Mr Podvinsek confided. “I love my city, so I’m really proud to mentor and sponsor these

wonderful young players in a leadership role.” Mr Podvinsek said he had juggled his real estate work with volunteer time in the past for State Emergency Service and community radio stations. “I love helping people, it’s certainly in my blood both personally and professionally.” He described his sponsored players - Gabe Dillon, Cormac Cashin, Myles Benham, Tom Stewart

and Sam Carr - as “outstanding” footballers. “I’m very excited to be sponsoring such great young people and such an outstanding club in the Geelong Falcons.” The self-described avid footy fan was thrilled to now have more reasons to attend matches in Geelong. “I’ll get to as many games as I can after my open homes on Saturdays,” he said.

A TEAM of Harcourts’ staff will put their fitness to the test this week when they jump on their bikes to raise money for Queensland’s flood appeal and cystic fibrosis research. Harcourts’ two offices in Geelong have thrown both their support and donations of money behind the charity cycling team of eight colleagues from around Australia. Harcourts North Geelong director Joe Grgic said the charity challenge team left Melbourne’s Federation Square last week. The team planned to arrive in the Gold Coast on Monday after riding more than 1700 kilometres, he said. “The guys have been training for Riding high: Harcourts riders over six months come rain, hail or prepare to hit the road. shine. “They’ve been riding in different Cystic Fibrosis Australia and the terrains and many are a bit nervous Queensland Premier’s flood appeal. and expecting the ride to be one of He developed the charity ride the most difficult things they will do when a school friend with cystic in their life. fibrosis died aged 25. “Some of them have participated “Like me, a lot of the guys on the in sports at elite levels and I’m team have known and lost people pretty sure they’re the nervous to cystic fibrosis,” Mr Pullar said. ones because they know the pain it “I decided I wanted to do will take them to get through this something slightly out of the box to marathon ride of over 100 make people stand up and take kilometres a day.” notice of such a great cause. Mr Grgic said Harcourts North Inside, we all had a burning desire Geelong staff had collected to do something to make a donations for the charity ride at difference and this was it. open-house inspections and in the “Then in January we saw what office. Queensland was going through Harcourts Carrum Downs with the floods and decided to do director and team rider Troy Pullar said he hoped to raise $100,000 for our bit to help out there, too.”

The fully-fenced, 305square-metre block features two street frontages and its own title. The buyer will have the option of building either a single or a double-storey home, subject to council approval. The property’s ideal location is within walking distance of Minerva Road’s shops and cafes as well as several schools and public transport. Commuters to Melbourne will love the convenience of the nearby Geelong bypass, while shopping trips into town are just short drive along the waterfront away. Nestled in a quiet, leafy street, the allotment is a rare gem likely to spark intense competition at auction.
