Grace Gives

Commitment to Community

As one of Australia’s most iconic organisations, we believe that the bigger you are, the greater your responsibility to help communities in need. That’s why, in 2016, Grace launched Grace Gives – our Corporate Social Responsibility Program. Since its foundation, Grace Gives has been supporting local community causes across Australia to help fund and support the communities we work within.

To help grow this initiative and really ensure that we have an impact on communities in need, 2021 saw Grace Gives shift from funding small local groups to focusing on a single organisation – The Indigenous Literacy Foundation (ILF). 

Grace Partners with ILF

As one of Australia’s oldest businesses, Grace recognises its responsibility to contribute to the greater economic and cultural empowerment of First Australian’s to help ‘close the gap’. Grace is proud to be a Gold Donor Partner with the ILF, an innovative not for profit organisation which aims to empower and build the capability for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living in remote Australia to develop and pursue their own literacy journeys. They do this through their three core literacy programs which include: Book Supply; Book Buzz and Community Publishing Projects.

According to the ILF, “only 36% of Indigenous Year 5 students in very remote areas are at or above national minimum reading standards, compared to 96% for non-Indigenous students in major cities” *, creating a big literacy gap. The support Grace Gives provides allows the ILF to purchase and distribute thousands of books, throughout these communities, many of which are written and illustrated by Indigenous authors and artists.

Local Community Organisations

At Grace, we believe in the power of community and are committed to supporting grassroots sports and cultural organisations across Australia. Our partnerships with local initiatives like the Casey Warriors Rugby League Club in Melbourne, the River Run 100 ultramarathon in Queensland, and The Torch project, which provides art programmes for Indigenous offenders and ex-offenders in Victoria, allow us to make a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals and communities. We also support the Northern Territory Geek Culture Collective, which brings together enthusiasts of various fandoms, from anime to gaming, fostering a sense of belonging and shared passion.

Through these initiatives and more, Grace is proud to play a role in strengthening the vibrant tapestry of Australian culture and promoting the benefits of an active, engaged lifestyle.
