Maccabi Member Benefits
A Delicious Way To Support Maccabi Victoria
We’ve been selected to participate in Local Matters at Grill’d Balaclava this October!
Local Matters is the Grill’d community donation program that sees each Grill’d restaurant donate $500 back into the community every month. The donation is split between 3 local community groups $300 / $100 / $100.
HOW YOU CAN HELP?
We’d love your support in receiving the highest $300 donation! Simply head to Grill’d Balaclava during October for a burger and pop your Local Matters token in our jar. The group with the most tokens at the end of the month receives the largest donation.
It’s a simple (and delicious) way to show your support!
You’ll find us on a jar at Grill’d Balaclava, 231-237 Carlisle Street
Balaclava.
