LUCRF extends CPT to Queensland
Industry superannuation fund LUCRF Super has announced that it is extending its LUCRF Community Partnership Trust to Queensland.
The Community Partnership Trust was established in November 2010 and is intended to allow the super fund to engage with the communities in which its members live and work via sponsorship of community projects.
The fund said last week that it had so far supported more than 14 worthy community projects in Victoria and New South Wales.
Commenting on the initiative, LUCRF Super chief executive Greg Sword said the Community Partnership Trust formed partnerships with employers, employees and members who pledge their support through a Workplace Giving Program or one-off contributions.
Sword flagged that the fund would be extending the program to South Australia.
