That figure took its cumulative total after 15 years of screenings to nearly $7 million.
Having always donated its profits to charities, the organisation has now partnered with Telethon.
That means in future all Community Cinemas profits will be funnelled into Telethon beneficiaries, improving the quality of life for children all over WA.
Recently the organisation handed over a cheque for $566,000 to Telethon.
New seasons are about to start at Burswood (November 24), Murdoch (November 10) and Bassendean (December 8).
