Social activist Dave Letele has criticized Westpac for what he deems “poverty porn,” claiming the bank used his foodbank for positive publicity but ignored his request for a $10,000 donation afterward. Letele highlighted that while around 20 bank employees volunteered at the BBM Community Kitchen in 2021, he expected a financial contribution that never came. He expressed surprise when Westpac later sought to return for another year of service, stating that the experience would cost them $10,000.
