Enriching the lives of our employees

Our people lend a hand through volunteer work and, often, reach into their own pockets to support causes that are close to their hearts.

Giving back to the community

Lives saved through blood and plasma donations
I received a life-saving blood transfusion after a severe car accident. I never thought I would need a blood transfusion but because of donors like those from HBF, I survived.

Our Community Partnerships Program awards significant funding (up to $300,000, over three years) to one recipient annually. We award multiple Community Grants (once-only funding up to $50,000) throughout the year.
They open in April each year. See the key dates.

We support a range of initiatives, of all sizes, that are making a positive difference to the health of West Australians. Funding equipment for grassroots sport, healthy meals for the disadvantaged or a team in a charity bike ride are just some examples.
