Supporting our community makes us happy

‘Happy Banking’ is at the very heart of what Bankwest stands for. It means not only looking out for our customers, but giving the broader community something to smile about as well. It is a philosophy that is embraced throughout our organisation - as individuals and as a company we are committed to supporting charities and groups that spread a little happiness.

Community engagement

Every year we make a commitment to assist charities that make a difference. We’re proud to partner with two incredible children’s charities: Redkite and Edmund Rice Camp for Kids.

Our Bankwest staff have also pledged their support to these charities and many have donations directly debited from their salary as part of our Workplace Giving initiative.

Volunteering

Our commitment to the community goes beyond writing out cheques. Our employees regularly roll up their sleeves and donate their time to help out charities and events through our colleague volunteering program.

Sponsorships

Bankwest is lucky enough to be in a position where we can be active within the communities we’re a part of. So it only seems natural that we give back to the community by sponsoring a range of groups and organisations.
