At Malabar, we are part of our local community. We value community feedback, and are committed to continuous, open, constructive dialogue with all our stakeholders.
Our Approach
Malabar is an active participant in the local Upper Hunter community. We support a wide range of local groups, businesses, schools, sporting teams and charities, and engage with our community stakeholders on a regular basis to seek input and encourage transparency.
Our Community
We believe in engaging with the community we’re a part of. We regularly donate to community groups and charities, local schools, and local sporting teams, and maintain a community sponsorship program where local organisations can apply for funding or in-kind donations.
We have contributed over $600,000 in donations to date across a diverse range of innovative projects including sporting events, school fundraisers, school swimming programs, cultural awareness camps, support for residential aged care, support for local chamber of commerce events and support for wildlife conservation.
If you are part of a community organisation and would like to apply for one of our Community Grants, please complete the form below and one of our Community Team will be in contact shortly.
Our Community team will request more detailed information for projects that are shortlisted for our Community Grants program.
