In July 2013 the Yarra Ranges Staff Development program was developed. This program
was designed to provide staff the opportunity to improve existing skills in Leadership,
Branch Operations, Teamwork, Business Development, Presentation Skills, Coaching as
well as Networking.
Along with the development of these skills, as a group, we were to organise a community
engagement event to raise funds for a charity of their choice. We had to select a local
charity to support; liaise with them to create awareness of their organisation or charity
& help fundraise for a project of their choice.
The
-
staff members involved in the 1st program are;

Corey Lim, CRO Blackburn South

Maria Bell, CRO Upwey

Jayne Matthews, CSO Healesville
Kellie Mitchell, CRO Wandin-Seville
I am pleased to announce that the charity we have chosen to support is Bridge Builders.
Bridge Builders is a not-for profit youth organisation based in Lilydale, delivering youth
services to the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne, and around the State.
“Bridge Builders aim is to influence and grow the lives of young people, and we use events
and business enterprise as a way of engaging and developing young people”.
Bridge Builders are working hard to accommodate as many community events and
functions in their pavilion and that’s where we the Bendigo Bank community come in to
the picture.
Our aim is to raise as much money as possible for this project to proceed and here is
how you can help!
On Saturday 11th October the Yarra Ranges Development group is holding a Trivia Night,
and we would love for you to assist us in supporting Bridge Builders with either
participating in the night, donating goods for auction or making a donation.
Please block out your calendar and tell your work colleagues, family, friends & customers.
We would love your Support! See the attached flyer for further details……
