Quill Club event raises $27,000

About $27,000 was raised for Parkinson’s Victoria at the Quill Club’s annual charity luncheon in Melbourne on Friday.

The Docklands event was attended by nearly 400 insurance professionals.

Last year’s event raised $18,000 for charity.

The Quill Club is an insurance industry-based group established in 1977 to bring together industry professionals for education and networking.

It meets every month and concentrates its fundraising activities on charities that receive little or no support from governments.

Woodridge Insurance Services Principal Tony Carmusciano, who is the club’s Secretary, was presented with a Golden Quill Award at the event, for services to the organisation.
