The Byron Bonney Group has supported many charities throughout 2008, along with a number of sporting events and local sponsorships. These include Red Nose Day, Circus Quirkus Children's Charity, Whitelion, Lock Up Your Boss Day and various others.

The major charities supported by the group were:

Relay for Life

With the Byron Bonney Group matching the Lloyds North and Caltas Head Office fundraising effort dollar for dollar, the total amount raised last year was $6,400. Well done to the Quoiba Gang, who fundraised for the year and participated in the 24-hour walk - there were a few bleary eyes and tired feet after the event! This dedicated group of walkers have been participating in Relay for Life for the past 3 years and will support this event as their major charity each year.

Lock Up Your Boss Day

Our esteemed leader, Philip Molineux, was arrested for "Lock Up Your Boss Day." The local police arrived at the office with lights flashing and sirens blaring. Fortunately for Phil, he was able to raise the requested bail and was later released from custody. Phil managed to raise in excess of $4,000 for the Heart Foundation Charity. Other major charities supported by the Group during 2008 include the Moonbeam Children's Charity and the Salvation Army Christmas Appeal.
