To better support local event organisers, our new Event Sponsorship Express Application offers up to $2,000 per event for eligible applicants.

Designed with busy community groups in mind, the streamlined application process is open year-round, until funds are exhausted, and focuses specifically on supporting events without the need to wait for our annual funding round.

To ensure applications can be properly assessed and sponsorship opportunities effectively leveraged, all requests must be submitted at least 10 weeks prior to the event date. This timeframe allows for thorough decision-making, planning, and collaboration to maximise outcomes for both the event and the broader community.

As a community owned bank, we believe in giving back to the community that supports us. Through our event sponsorships, we seek to strengthen the social fabric of the Mansfield district, support local economic activity, and help create vibrant events that bring lasting value to our region.

To be eligible for a Sponsorship, applicants must meet the following criteria:

• Must be a Not for profit, community organisation with a valid ABN or be a group that is auspiced /partnered by such an organisation.
• Must be based in or servicing the Mansfield District community with a valid Australian bank account.
• Not have any other sponsors who are financial institutions. This includes banks, brokers, insurance providers etc (unless special conditions apply).
• Must deliver clear business acquisition outcomes for the Community Bank Mansfield & District.

If you are using an auspiced / partnering organisation, they must confirm that they support the project, will receive the funds on behalf of the applicant, apply the funds to the project and detail how they are adding value to the project.
