At the last Community Bank grants program in 2023, the Community Bank supported local groups with funding of $65,317.

Branch Manager Peter Groenenberg said that in almost 19 years of operation, the Community Bank Rosewood & District has returned almost $1.85 million to the local community through grants, sponsorships, donations and shareholder dividends.

Total funds distributed back into the community during the 2023 – 2024 financial year was $168,631.

“This could not be possible without the support from our loyal customers.”

A presentation evening will be held at the Rosewood State School Hall on Wednesday, November 13 starting at 6pm sharp.

A light supper will be provided. Come along and support your local organisations.

“We would love to see you there,” Peter said.
