Winter is perfect for slowing down and enjoying some of the best parts of our local community.

🚶 Coastal walks
🏉 Weekend sport, beach walks and fishing
📚 Catching up on projects
💛 Supporting local businesses

It’s also a reminder that some members of our community need extra support during colder months so please connect with local services if either in need or can provide assistance.

💡 Your idea could create local change

Community projects often begin with one person asking, "What if?"

What if we created a new youth program?
What if we improved a community space?
What if we helped more people in need?
What if we improved our environment?
What if our club could supported more families?

If your organisation, club or project needs support, now is the time to apply for a Community Bank Ettalong Beach grant. Simply visit us at the branch to discuss how to apply and make it happen.

🤠🦘 Can you help us out, legends?

Rotary Brisbane Water and Woy Woy Peninsula Lions Club are on the hunt for prize donations for our upcoming Australiana Cocktail Party fundraiser on Saturday, 15 August 2026 at Umina Surf Club!

💛 Supporting people when they need it most

A strong community is measured by how it supports people through difficult times.

Local community organisations, like Shelter work every day to provide support, meals, accommodation assistance and practical help to people experiencing hardship and homelessness.

We’re proud that community banking helps strengthen initiatives that create care, dignity and connection locally.

If you know an organisation doing important work, we'd love to hear about it. And don't forget to spread the word that local groups, projects and initiatives can apply for a grant or sponsorship - pop into the Ettalong Beach branch to find out how.

Please share this post to help highlight the people making a difference.

Fantastic team effort from across the community in raising funds to support those affected by cancer, thanks to all Cancer Council NSW Ettalong Diggers

💛 THANK YOU TO OUR MAJOR SPONSORS 💛

Together, we raised an incredible $12,000 for Cancer Council NSW through the Rotary Brisbane Water Biggest Morning Tea hosted by Ettalong Diggers.

This event would not have been possible without the generosity, support and community spirit of our major sponsors and event partners.

A heartfelt thank you to:

⭐ Ettalong Diggers
⭐ Rotary Brisbane Water
⭐ Community Bank Ettalong Beach
⭐ COAST FM 963
⭐ Material Girlz Event Styling

Your support helped create a sold-out community event that not only brought people together but also raised vital funds to support Cancer Council NSW's research, prevention programs and support services.

Thank you for believing in this event and helping us make a real difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.

Together, we are making a real difference. 💛
