Come along! Exciting times at Eastern Dandenong Ranges BASE

At Community Bank Upwey & District and Emerald & District, we’re excited to share something special… our 2026 Staff Grant Program!

Each of our staff members was given the opportunity to choose and surprise a local community group they’re passionate about supporting. Because our team works with the community every day, they see firsthand the incredible work being done and were absolutely thrilled to support a local group with a surprise $1,500 donation. 💛

We’re excited to share these moments with you over the coming weeks.

1️⃣0️⃣ Our tenth presentation was made by Jacqui Scanlan, our Customer Service Supervisor, who works in our Emerald branch. Jacqui chose to support the Hills Arts Alliance .

Jacqui chose the Hills Arts Alliance "because of the incredible support they provide to other groups, festivals, and community events within our community."

We are so grateful to Jacqui and Community Bank Dandenong Ranges for providing this grant. There are some really exciting things happening at the Eastern Dandenong Ranges BASE and we can't wait to share it with the community. This support will help us complete the set up of the Imaginarium Makers' Space, which is a key enabler of HAA's goal to connect and support creatives and artists throughout the region.
