Bendigo Bank Warragul Christmas Charities

-

The Bendigo Bank Warragul, located at 45 Smith Street, is participat­ing in two initiative­s that will help many in our community enjoy this Christmas season.

The branch shares Bendigo Bank’s ethos of investing in the needs of our community and over the past 20 years Bendigo Bank through its Community Initiative­s have returned over $205m to Australian communitie­s.

They are pleased to be supporting both the Baw Baw Combined Churches Food Relief and St Vincent De Paul charities in their efforts this Christmas.

Their first initiative is located in the entry of the branch.

The shopping trolley is a collection point for the Baw Baw Combined Churches Food Relief where you can deposit packaged and dry food products for distributi­on amongst our district.

The second initiative is the Santa Sleigh in the branch which is a collection point where you can deposit a wrapped gift designed for children and youth up to age 18, which will be collected and distribute­d by St Vinnies.

David and the team from Bendigo Bank Warragul are pleased to be participat­ing with these charities and encourage everyone to drop something off to ensure that as many families as possible can enjoy this Christmas season.
