What we do

Powered by people.
Built for the community.

We don't run ads. We don't charge for posts. Everything is driven by the people, for the people.

Raise awareness

We shine a light on the people, families and causes that need support. By sharing their stories, we help connect them with a community that genuinely cares.

Public & local issues

From breaking news to missing persons, weather alerts and important community updates, we keep Australians informed about what matters most.

Giving back

We love surprising our community with event tickets, experiences and special opportunities. It's our way of saying thank you to the people who make CommunityPete what it is.

About CommunityPete

Built on one simple idea —
bringing people together.

What started as a small community page during the COVID lockdowns has grown into one of Australia's largest independent community platforms.

Today, millions of people see CommunityPete each month for trusted local news, emergency updates, community appeals, inspiring stories and opportunities to help others.

We believe social media should do more than entertain—it should connect people, create real-world impact, and remind us that kindness still exists.

Because when a community comes together, incredible things happen.
