Giving Back to Our Community
At Greensborough Plaza, we’re proud to be more than just a place to shop—we’re an active part of the community we serve. Throughout the year, we partner with local charities and organisations to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those who need support.
January
Greensborough Plaza donated $7,398.70 to Diamond Valley Community Support Inc. This money was raised during December from our Christmas Gift Wrapping and Santa Breakfasts. The funds will go towards helping local families in need.
March
Our community rallied together for the Share The Dignity Drive, providing essential items to women in need. We collected over 350 products to support women experiencing hardship.
April
The local community in partnership with the Plaza raised $1,301.15 at our Easter Bunny Morning Tea, which was donated to Diamond Valley Community Support Inc. to assist with those who need it most.
May
Throughout May, Greensborough Plaza partnered with The Nappy Collective to support families in crisis, and together with our community, we successfully collected over 4,000 nappies. The Nappy Collective is Australia’s only nonprofit dedicated solely to collecting and distributing nappies to families in need, operating nationwide all year round. They accept new, leftover, or outgrown nappies and deliver them through their trusted network of charity partners. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this campaign—your generosity will make a meaningful difference to Australian families doing it tough.
June
Greensborough Plaza hosted a magical Frozen in Time Weekend on June 27th and 28th in support of FightMND, raising $688.85 for the fight against Motor Neurone Disease. Over two days, families enjoyed complimentary frozen-themed crafts, professional face painting, glitter hair embellishments, and incredible frozen prehistoric animal displays in exchange for gold coin donations. FightMND is dedicated to finding effective treatments and ultimately a cure for Motor Neurone Disease through funding world-class research, while also supporting patients and their families with care and advocacy.
Toiletry Drive – Thank You
Greensborough Plaza was proud to partner with Diamond Valley Community Support for our Toiletry Drive throughout June.
Thank you to the generous Greensborough community for your wonderful support. Your donations have made a real difference to individuals and families experiencing hardship in our community.
September
Prostate Cancer Awareness — One in FiveSeptember 2026 | In partnership with the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia
Throughout September, Greensborough Plaza was proud to host the One in Five Prostate Cancer Awareness campaign on Level 2, near the Customer Service Desk and Telstra store.
In partnership with the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia, the campaign aimed to raise awareness of prostate cancer — a disease that affects 1 in 5 Australian men, with one man diagnosed every 18 minutes.
Shoppers were invited to visit the interactive display, learn about the importance of early detection, and enter a guessing game for the chance to win a $250 Greensborough Plaza gift voucher. Volunteers from the Eltham Prostate Cancer Support Group — a group that has served the local community for over 20 years and supported more than 100 men and their families — were on hand throughout the campaign to share their experiences and start meaningful conversations.
The campaign was warmly received by our community, with hundreds of shoppers stopping to engage with the display and learn more about this important cause.
Together, we started the conversation. Early detection saves lives.
