In 2017 HCC started its Business Supporter Program (BSP), to engage with philanthropic business owners within the Boroondara area, in recognition of those businesses that work in the area and want to help those most in need in our community. 

​

The membership fee of $1,000 annually is tax deductible, with 100% going directly to funding grants. 

​

The benefits of joining HCC’s Business Supporter Program include:

• A framed Hawthorn Community Chest certificate recognising your contribution to place in your reception area;

• Quarterly updates listing the grants we have made;

• Priority invitations to our events and placement of your company logo on all event collateral;

• First access to any sponsorship or branding opportunities;

• Display of your company logo on our website;

• A photo taken of you and your staff with HCC’s ‘I Love My Local Charity’ sign which can be displayed in your office and on your social media;

• Recognition of your contribution in our Annual Report.
