With our corporate partners we are making a major difference in the lives of many Melburnians.

Here is a snapshot of how our corporate partners have worked with us  to make a difference to those in need:

  • Tennis Australia has supported young people with mentoring and recreational programs through Big Brothers Big Sisters, Western Chances and Oz Child.
  • Colliers International raised $20,000 for The Heart Foundation in their Charity Golf Day
  • Zurich staff made blankets and bought beanies for the homeless as part of their Winter Appeal as well as brightening up the new Asylum Seekers Resouce Centre building.
  • KPMG staff have been helping to serve lunch to the homeless in the Melbourne CBD.
  • The Good Guys electrical retailers are donating 20c for every transaction made in every store

These are just a few ways our corporate partners have been working with us to make a difference to those in need in our city.

Our Corporate Connect volunteering program continues to grow at a rapid rate. We are also continually improving these programs, and receive positive feedback from volunteers.

We wouldn't have done any of this without the support of our Corporate partners and donors. Thank you for working with us to help make a difference to those in need, and we look forward to a successful second half of the year!
