Bankwest is a division of Commonwealth Bank of Australia.
Bankwest sponsors, supports, partners and volunteers with a diverse group of organisations in our community. They encourage their staff to use two days’ paid volunteer leave every year. Bankwest’s volunteer program offers opportunities from cooking, cleaning or gardening, to using professional skills – all to make a positive difference.
Bankwest and Perth NRM deliver a program of corporate volunteering through which Bankwest staff support at least ten days of on-ground support for community groups each year. Bankwest staff help with weeding, revegetation and rubbish removal mostly in coastal dune areas. Each event includes a cultural experience delivered by a local Noongar elder.
Bankwest has also provided support for the RegenWA initiative of Perth NRM, including sponsoring a number of events including the official launch by the Minister for Agriculture Hon. Alannah MacTiernan of the Regenerative Farmers’ Network at the Dowerin Fiend Days in August 2018, and the Regenerative Agriculture Conference in September 2019.
