It's a win-win when you bank with us

Your banking choices make a real difference. When you bank with the Community Bank Gisborne & District branch of Bendigo Bank, you help support the clubs, projects and organisations at the heart of your local community.

By choosing us over a corporate or Big 4 Bank, you help deliver more funds back into your community. It’s as simple as that.

Where else can your banking create such a positive impact? Thanks to our 5,000+ banking customers, we have contributed over $4 million into Gisborne and surrounds since 2008. Here's the local groups who have benefited so far:

Emergency services (CFA and SES)
Foodbanks
Sporting & recreation clubs
Schools
Men’s sheds
Community health organisations

Neighbourhood houses
Art, music and theatre groups
Landcare and sustainability groups
Community events
Youth embarking on tertiary study
Emerging leaders in your community.

Profit for purpose

Community banking follows a ‘profit-for-purpose’ model, meaning profits are returned directly to the community that has generated them. This creates a continuous positive cycle of business success and community prosperity.

Everyone has to bank somewhere. With access to the competitive rates, products and services of Australia’s most trusted bank*, not to mention award-winning customer service, why would you bank anywhere else?
