The management and team at Morris Finance Ltd are very proud to announce that we have signed on to partner the Mark West Foundation for the next three years.

Following Mark’s tragic death, the legacy of former Newtown & Chilwell footballer Mark West will continue to live on in a foundation named in his honor.

Close friend Tom Harriott and Mark’s brother Paul have founded the Mark West Foundation to make local junior football in the Geelong and surrounding regions accessible to local children and families that don’t have the means to participate.

“Junior coaching was a massive passion of Mark’s and he got an enormous amount of pleasure out of seeing kids enjoy and improve themselves and Mark was very strong about instilling the right values in the kids he coached” said foundation co-chair Tom Harriott.

“When Paul first mentioned that their team had created a foundation in memory of Mark to support local kids I knew we had to get involved and to see what Tom, Paul and their team have done in a short period of time is a credit to themselves and we are looking forward to working with them over the next three years” said Morris Finance Ltd Managing Director Nathan Murray.

The timing of the announcement has come at the right time with foundation due to host their very first charity dinner on Saturday the 25th of July at the Pier in Geelong to raise much needed funds for the local communities with guests including Mick Malthouse and Crackers Keenan, if you would like to attend please visit http://www.tmwf.org.au/fundraising or call Tom Harriot on 0408 950 743.
