Have you seen our beautiful banner for the 2025 Photo Challenge this year? The stunning featured photo was entered by KLR Photography and is entitled "Chat with the old man". Katie Robertson the photographer said: "With a grin from ear to ear, a son converses with his father. The very legacy he looks up to and admires. Seeking nothing more than advice and encouragement from the one person who has shown him nothing but unconditional love, compassion and understanding over the years." Katie captured this wholesome moment between a cowboy and his dad at the 2023 Dalby Show and entered it into last year's challenge to support men's mental health charity Are You Bogged Mate? We hope it inspires you to show us what kindness looks like through your lens. The Queensland Gives Photo Challenge is now in its 8th year and is proudly sponsored by The Queensland Public Trustee.

Queensland Gives by Queensland Community Foundation - a charitable trust creating a perpetual income for 300+ charities
About us
Queensland Gives by Queensland Community Foundation (QCF) was established by The Honourable Mike Ahern AO in 1997, as a public charitable trust set up to serve Queensland’s communities by providing an enduring funding source for charities. QCF is now a leading state trust fund of $132m with 255+ sub-funds. Since inception, almost $35 million has been distributed for charitable purposes, creating lasting change for the wellbeing of current and future generations. Individuals, companies, charities and other groups – including communities – may establish a sub-fund under the QCF Trust Deed to support a cause or causes of their choice in their geographic area. Donations are pooled and invested with the income distributed annually for charitable purposes. Since establishment in 1997 the pool of invested funds has grown to $115 million as at January 2022. The General Fund was established to provide a secure permanent trust fund for donors wishing to support Queensland charities. The named sub-funds are held for specific charitable purposes as recommended by donors. QCF has been sponsored by The Public Trustee of Queensland, Anglo American and QIC since inception. Each of the sponsors commits not just financial assistance, but also resources and services to ensure none of the donated or bequeathed funds are used in administration charges. The QCF Board of Governors is entirely voluntary and consists of leaders from a variety of fields who give their time as a community service. It is the responsibility of the Board to provide recommendations and information to the Trustee.

It was wonderful to sign off on a very successful year for the QG Sunshine Coast Committee last week! This year each committee member has connected with one of their grant recipients which has fostered strong relationships and a better understanding of the incredible work these groups are doing locally. Pictured celebrating the End of the Year with CEO Tara Castle is Karinne Cilento Clinton, Chair Martin Griffin and Marla Edwards whilst Cynthia Harris , Scott Williams AO and Marian Hall couldn’t make it due to other commitments. Queensland Gives is incredibly grateful to our regional committees who are so important in ensuring our funding goes where it is needed most! #regionalgiving #committee #volunteer #community
