Community Impact Program

Community Bank Mansfield & District’s Community Impact Program is driven by our overarching strategy to invest in the growth of a resilient, sustainable, and thriving Mansfield & District community.

Community and not-for-profit organisations can apply for projects and activities that offer clear public benefit for the community and align with our 5 Key Impact Pillars

1. Leadership - Investing in people, leadership and resilience

2. Opportunity & Innovation - Encouraging innovation and creation

3. Wellbeing - Nurturing our community’s wellbeing and resilience

4. Collaborate & Connect - Working to establish, maintain and support partnerships and collaboration, for collective benefit and to build our community capacity

5. Liveability - Improving and sustaining our region

Community Bank Mansfield & District funds this program by channelling a portion of its profits back into the community that generated them – especially for those projects and activities that cannot be funded via other means.

Jointly administered by the Community Bank Mansfield & District and the Community Enterprise Foundation™, the Community Impact Program is made possible by the people who make bank with Bendigo Bank’s Community Bank Mansfield & District.

It’s a program run by local people, making local decisions to create local benefits. That’s how your banking can make a difference
