Canopy Accelerator Cooperative is on a winning streak!
We’re thrilled to share that Canopy Accelerator Cooperative took home the Runner-up prize at the 2026 Wyndham Pitch Competition!
The Board is pictured here with Cr Larry Zhao and Past President of the Werribee Lion’s Club, Lion Raymond Loh, together with our winnings: $3,000 from Wyndham City and $2,000 in Dell Technologies products. Combined with our recent Australia Post People of Post Grant, we are ready to scale our impact across the west.
Thank you to the organizers at #Wynnovation and our fellow local innovators for an inspiring event!

Where Service Meets Sustainability
The Werribee Lions Eco Club was established as a way for Lions clubs to respond meaningfully to environmental challenges at a local level. Rather than demanding perfection, the Eco Club model recognises sustainability as a journey one built through practical action, learning, and steady improvement.
Each Eco Club operates under the values of Lions International while focusing its energy on sustainability initiatives that deliver real community benefit. From tree planting and habitat restoration to waste reduction and recycling, Eco Clubs allow members to align traditional service with modern environmental responsibility.
