PROPERTY NEWS
BIRTHDAY GIFTS FROM THE BANK AS the Bendigo Bank continues to celebrate its Upwey Community Bank branch turning 20 in October, some more groups have received surprise grants from staff nominations. Sherbrooke Little Athletics was pleased to receive a Club Rewards payment of $140 and even more surprised and excited to receive $1000 from staff member Melodie. Melodie, from the Upwey branch, nominated the club because she believes small clubs have limited funds and the extra money will help them reach their goals. Emerald SES was surprised and rapt to receive the $1000 Staff Choice Grant from Julie at the Belgrave branch recently. Julie believes that the SES does a lot of great work in many emergency situations. Matt and Ben from Emerald SES received the cheque from Julie. “We will be continuing to celebrate our 20th birthday with these ‘surprise presentations’ in the lead-up to our birthday in October,” said company chairman John Waters. “I’m also pleased to advise that the board recently approved a Special Sponsorship Program to provide clubs in our catchment with defibrillators and we will be letting everyone know the details of how to apply for this sponsorship in the coming weeks.” ●
