Greater Shepparton Connected Community Marks 10 Years of Impact
GREATER Shepparton Connected Community (GSCC), in partnership with Bendigo Bank, is celebrating 10 years of dedicated service to the local community. Over the past decade, GSCC has donated over $700,000 to more than 130 local groups and organisations, fostering growth, development, and a strong community spirit across the Greater Shepparton region.
These contributions have made a meaningful difference, supporting grassroots sports clubs, educational initiatives, and community welfare programs. GSCC’s ongoing partnership with Bendigo Bank allows everyday banking to benefit the community. By opening an account at the Bendigo Bank Shepparton branch and requesting it be ‘linked’ as a Greater Shepparton Connected Community account, customers help generate funds at no cost to themselves. Bendigo Bank then contributes a monthly commission to the Shepparton Connected Community fund, which is distributed to local groups through a grant application process.
Recently, GSCC Board members joined 2023 grant recipients, Undera Football Netball Club, for a dinner on Thursday, 15th August. The club celebrated the installation of their new netball scoreboard, funded by GSCC, showcasing the impact of GSCC’s support and reinforcing the strong relationships between the organisation and its beneficiaries.
Looking ahead, GSCC remains committed to its mission of supporting local groups and organisations. GSCC is excited to announce a special event to commemorate this 10-year milestone, scheduled for Tuesday, 15th October, at The Woolshed at Emerald Bank and we invite the community to stay tuned for further details and join us in celebrating our collective achievements.
