In
keeping with our policy of supporting the community, Bank of Queensland
plays an active and positive role in community life through a variety
of sponsorship and fundraising activities.
By supporting medical research and education,
we’re helping to build a brighter future for the residents of our
great home state.
Equally our support of all levels of sporting endeavour,
flagshipped by our sponsorship of the Bank of Queensland Reds Rugby Union
team, demonstrates the Bank's strong commitment to the pursuit of excellence
through discipline and hard work.
In addition to the Bank’s own sponsorship and fundraising
activities, we support staff who are active in the local community through
our Matching Gifts program, donating a dollar for every dollar raised
by staff for charity.
We
want our employees to give to the community by being proud Bank of Queensland
representatives every day in their work, but also by rolling up their
sleeves and chipping in to support those who need it.
It's all about putting something back into the community
which supports us, and creating the sort of State we are proud to call
home.
We have also forged an association with the Second Chance
Programme, a Brisbane-based charity dedicated to addressing the needs
of homeless women. Through this association we have introduced a new credit
card, our Purple card, which aims to raise much-needed funds for the Second
Chance Programme. Find out more about the Purple card.
