Community Bank Busselton & Dunsborough
New Community Grants Program
Investing in the communities we call home.
Community Bank Busselton & Dunsborough exists to help our community prosper.
Unlike traditional banking models, a portion of the profits generated through local banking activity is reinvested back into local communities through grants, sponsorships, donations and community initiatives.
Simply put, the more people who choose to bank with us, the more we can give back.
Our Community Grants Program is a new approach to community investment, designed to provide a fair, transparent and equitable process for distributing funding to local organisations, clubs and community groups making a positive difference across our region.
We know there are many worthwhile projects competing for limited funding. Through this program, we aim to ensure support reaches the organisations and initiatives that can deliver the greatest benefit to our community.

A total of $50,000 has been allocated to this grant round, supporting projects that align with our community investment priorities:
