$5,000 raised for the Invictus Foundation!

Here at the Australian Military Bank, we were honoured to fundraise in aid of the Invictus Games, held in Sydney on 20-27 October 2018. The Invictus Games embodies the fighting spirit of our wounded, injured and ill servicemen and women and featured more than 500 competing athletes from a record 18 participating allied nations. The Games recognise and thank families and friends for their role and the challenges they share in supporting our wounded warriors.

To show our support for the Invictus Games, the bank committed to match dollar for dollar; every dollar donated by members. Collectively, Australian Military Bank along with its members raised a total of $5,000. We would like to sincerely thank all members who donated to the games.

Also, we’d like to thank all members that entered out ‘Trip for 2 to the Invictus Games’ competition and acknowledge our prize winners James (WA) and Makaila (QLD). Both James and Makaila provided compelling responses as to ‘why the Invictus Games inspires them?’. Of hundreds of entries received, their responses were selected after an independent third-party moderator reviewed all eligible applications refining the list to a small group of finalists. Our Executive Team had the privilege of reviewing these in detail and selected James’ and Makailas’ responses after much deliberation.

We were moved by the courage of the competitors and the spirit of the games. It was a fantastic opportunity to remind ourselves of the importance of our bond and the privileged role we have in serving the Defence Community.
