Community
Bringing People Together..
We care
Over half a million dollars was donated to a variety of community causes this past year. Think mental health, support programs, sports, health, schools, aged care, youth service and helping those in need.
We emphasise the spirit of social responsibility and giving back – and our aim is to work together with the community to achieve worthwhile benefits for those who need it most which is fitting with our vision statement;
‘To foster a welcoming environment and build positive community initiatives to consistently enhance and evolve member and partners experience’
