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

Our annual staff gift of giving time was spent with our friends at Suited to Success. This is our second year of volunteering to help them process the mountains of donations they have to sort in order to provide their invaluable styling services for clients that need help creating a wardrobe to get them started in the workforce after experiencing hardship such a family violence, fleeing a dangerous situation or financial difficulties. Suited to Success not only dresses clients for work but they also divert tonnes of used clothing from landfill which is equally important!#community #giving #volunteer #upcycle

Last month Queensland Gives had the great pleasure of working with a digital transformation team from Deloitte as part of their sponsorship arrangement. This work will have a huge impact on our future capacity as Eamon Suosaari (on the left) tailored our new CRM to our very specific needs and Yasmine Everstets (on the right) helped us streamline our digital communications strategy. Huge thanks to Digital Lead Partner at Deloitte Laura Campbell for helping us scope the project and make the most of this fantastic opportunity for change! Eamon, Seana, Kellie and Yasmine are pictured here at last week's End of Year Celebration. #community #digitaltransformation #collaboration #capacitybuilding
