Bendigo Bank proudly supporting Immigration Bridge Australia

Immigration Bridge Australia is a $30 million project to acknowledge the contribution immigration has made to our nation.

The pedestrian bridge itself will be one of the most spectacular and beautiful bridges ever constructed in Australia, spanning 400 metres across Canberra’s magnificent Lake Burley Griffin.

As well as its educational role, it will be a leading tourist attraction and will provide pedestrian access between the National Museum of Australia and the Federal Parliament.

Bendigo Bank is proud to be the principal sponsor of this exciting project.

Our company was formed in Bendigo, in country Victoria, in 1858 by local people - many of them migrants themselves.

They wanted to help create a successful, sustainable community, and it was those very same ideals that brought hundreds of thousands of migrants from 210 countries to Australia.

We value the contribution migrants have made, and continue to make, to cities and towns throughout Australia.

Bendigo Bank’s sponsorship of Immigration Bridge Australia is our way of recognising their legacy while at the same time celebrating our own forebears for laying the foundations of our company.

We invite you to join us in supporting Immigration Bridge Australia and celebrating the contribution made by immigrants.

As part of Immigration Bridge Australia, the History Handrail project will provide Australians with the chance to immortalise their immigrant family in history.

The public will have the chance to purchase a section of the bridge’s handrail, where their forebears’ details will be inscribed.
