The Merewether Greens Rugby Foundation is the principal source of funding to support the on and off-field endeavours of Merewether Carlton Rugby Club, including our Juniors.

The Foundation will be the main fundraising arm of our club for various special projects.

The Foundation’s guiding objectives are:

1. Securing our club’s future
2. Promoting social inclusion and community engagement
3. Achieving on-field success through pursuit of elite performance
4. Providing development and pathway opportunities for young players

The Foundation has entered an agreement with the Australian Sports Foundation and registered a general fundraising project with that body. 

To meet these objectives, the Merewether Greens Rugby Foundation will provide the means for supporters, groups and other entities to offer cash and in-kind donations and engage in fundraising activities.

The Foundation’s board is chaired by Robert Monteath and comprises eight accomplished individuals whose professional skills encompass finance, law, local government administration, engineering, marketing, property and media.

The Merewether Greens Rugby Foundation’s current fundraising project is to support the Greens Assistance Program.  To support this project 30 members of the Greens community will ride from Newcastle to Bathurst in an epic 3 day ride finishing at our annual pre-season club trial with Bathurst Rugby Club.  If you would like to show your support towards this fundraising project you can donate here.

We thank all of our generous sponsors for supporting this important initiative.
