At the CMV Group, giving back to the community has long been a big, and extremely important, part of our culture. Through both the CMV Group Foundation (est. 1953) and the CMV Group Staff Foundation, substantial funds have been channelled towards helping worthy causes and those less fortunate in our wider communities.
In October of 2007, the CMV Group Staff Foundation approved its first grant of funds into the community. In the 15 years since that first donation, CMV Group employees have given over two million dollars to over 500 organisations in our local communities. So this month, employees across the CMV Group celebrated this special milestone for the CMV Group Staff Foundation, 15 years of giving, with a morning tea at each location across the company.

This celebration recognises the valued contributions from many of our staff who elect to donate to the CMV Group Staff Foundations from their pay, which are then matched dollar-for-dollar by the CMV Group Foundation. We also recognise the dedication and commitment of the many incredible causes in our community whose hands-on efforts enable our funds to make a difference.
A new Division Giving initiative for the CMV Group Staff Foundation was also announced across the company at this celebration. Through this initiative, a portion of funds is allocated to every CMV Group division to give to a local organisation of their choice, thereby giving employees from each location the opportunity to have greater involvement in choosing how these funds are distributed in their local community and to causes close to their hearts.
