Welcome to the Hayes Girling Financial's Autumn newsletter. Our team has had a wonderful start to 2019 and are now looking forward to what's ahead for the rest of the year.
2019 Annual Count Awards
We are so proud and humbled to have taken home the 2019 Excellence in Client Engagement Award. It is a true testament to the hard work and
dedication our team puts in, to ensure we deliver outstanding client outcomes. This is the fifth year in a row we've been award
recipients, a record within the Count network. Well done team!
2018 Donations
HGF along with the help of the Count Charitable Foundation were able to make some generous donations to two very worthy
causes.
Barry & Andrew had the pleasure of presenting a $12,000 cheque to the Peter McCallum Cancer Foundation for the National Centre for
Infections in Cancer. They were lucky enough to meet with three members of the NCIC team, who spoke about some amazing work they are doing
to try and help people suffering from infection complications after their immune systems have been compromised by cancer treatments.
We were also thrilled to be able to support the SES Knox Unit and the amazing work they do for our community by presenting a $5,000 donation
on behalf of Count Charitable Foundation.
