Community Banking Driving Real Local Impact in Galson and Hills District

At Bendigo Bank, we believe banking should feed into the prosperity of the communities we serve.

Unlike traditional banking models, Community Bank Galston is formed and owned by our local community to support the needs and aspirations of our local community. Up to 80% of our profits generated by the branch are reinvested directly into the community. These grants provide vital support for local schools, sporting clubs, health services, children’s education initiatives and not-for-profit organisations such as Rotary and Lions Club.

The impact is significant. In the last financial year alone, Galston Community branch contributed an impressive $426,771 back into the community. This brings the branch’s total contribution to $3.9Mn so far, a remarkable achievement that highlights the power of communitydriven banking.

A big thank you to our loyal customers who choose to bank with “The better big bank” and make a difference in our community. Visit our branch today and help us continue making a real difference in our local community.
