This year is Hyne Timber’s 140th year, marking a time to reflect on the 140 years of supporting the communities in which it operates. In recognition of the great work of its community partners, the company has launched its first community video featuring the teams at Hervey Bay Volunteer Marine Rescue and Tumbarumba State Emergency Services.

Stakeholder Engagement Manager, James Hyne said giving back is important to the Hyne family.
“This was a passionate commitment of my great, great grandfather and remains a passionate commitment today,” he said.
“We are proud to be a major employer in our regional areas and to see our regional towns thriving and knowing that our support has contributed, is extremely rewarding.
“We like to support organisations and initiatives that provide lasting benefit to the towns and regions where our employees live and work.” Mr Hyne said.
“We support education and the arts, as well as mental health and disability services, and programs that create positive futures for children.”
Hyne Timber runs an annual sponsorships and donations framework in addition to the Hyne Community Trust, which is unique to the Tumbarumba region and opens for applications for the month of June each year.
Hyne also provides dollar matching up to $1,000 for employees so they can support the charities that matter to them.
