The Australian community have come together to support veteran charities through the Diggers Tribute initiative. Simply purchasing products through our partner websites has afforded BrandNet the opportunity to donate a further $40,000 to the veteran community. Read more of how BrandNet supports your veteran community. COVID-19 has inspired the BrandNet team to seek new and innovative ways to continue to support the veteran community.

ANZAC Day 2020
As national lockdowns swept across the country in 2020, Anzac Day commemorations and events were shut down, leaving veterans and charity organisations looking for new ways to continue to support and commemorate Anzac Day 2020.
The Diggers Tribute had been a previously created site by BrandNet, but a unique opportunity to support our community through the platform was put forward in 2020. The Diggers Tribute would become a community hub hosting donation links, community information, activities, and news in the lead-up to Anzac Day 2020.

Join the Great Teddy Bear Hunt
Put a bit of fun into walks for all kids by putting a teddy bear in your front window. When kids are out walking with their family (and yes we’re still allowed to do that! ) they’re on the lookout for bears in windows. It’s a world-wide phenomenon that’s bringing smiles and excitement to our kids. Be part of it and make the lockdown a little more BEARable.
