Orana Mutual Helping Dubbo Community Charities
Dubbo Chamber of Commerce was among 61 local organisations to share over $63,000 through this year’s Orana Mutual Community Partnership Account (CPA) annual donations. (Up from $47,000 last year).
The CPA was introduced in 2009 to allow Orana Mutual’s members to play a part in community giving, actively choosing where they wished to see the money go. Orana Mutual pays the annual bonus on the members’ behalf, it’s as easy as opening an account and choosing the organisation you’d like to see receive a cash bonus.
At the end of the financial year the nominated organisation receives a figure equivalent to one per cent of members’ average annual balances, the contribution at no cost to nominating members.
Here are all the local charities who benefited from the Orana Mutual CPA program this year:
