Community matters...at Riverside Plaza
Riverside Plaza is proud to sponsor and support the following groups and initiatives:
- Queanbeyan Hospital Auxiliary
- Queanbeyan Senior Citizens
- Queanbeyan Salvation Army
- Queanbeyan Red Cross
- George Forbes House
- Queanbeyan Quilters Association
- Monaro Panthers Soccer Club

Riverside Plaza supports these organisations through casual leasing space within the centre which enables them to sell raffle tickets, products such as home made jams and chutneys, gift wrapping or just collecting donations from Riverside customers to raise much needed monies for the great chairty work they provide.
You can find a number of these charities at Riverside Plaza throughout the year.
If you are part of a children's sporting team in the local area, and are looking for support, please contact Marketing on 6299 2466.
Earth Hour 2008 & 2009
Riverside Plaza participated in the Earth Hour campaign where the centre turned off the lights for one hour as part of a broader effort to reduce global warming. While a Sydney based initiative of conservation group WWF Australia, Riverside Plaza extended its support for the campaign and joined forces with other AMP Capital Shopping Centres Australia wide to participate in the event.
Riverside Plaza supported Earth Hour by turning of all lights within the centre, all automatic doors and travellators. In doing this Riverside Plaza reduced its lighting output and showed that it is easy to help make a difference to climate change.
