Quotes to be attributed to Brimbank Mayor Cr Thuy Dang

“There are so many examples of people, groups and businesses doing good works across
Brimbank. We Are Brimbank Awards are our way of recognising these valued community
members and saying thank you.

“My own experience of this as a refugee was what motivated me to run for election for
Brimbank City Council. You never truly know what impact you might be having on someone, or
the community, when you do something positive for others.

“Anyone can nominate for the We Are Brimbank Awards. Nominations can be made online, and
winners are celebrated at a special event hosted by Council in May as part of our Volunteer
week celebrations. If you are thinking of nominating, don’t hesitate. Please nominate today.”
