I have been a supporter of Pledge 1% since day one of starting Smart WFM, always with a view to supporting causes that matter to myself, my family and our diverse team across the world.
In Australia, we have placed a huge focus on supporting Indigenous causes, particularly Indigenous literature – this is the key to better communication, collaboration, and education between all people who call Australia home.
As well as the commitment to give 1% of our profits to these causes, we support in other ways including through our sponsorship of the Australian Business Book Awards, with all proceeds going towards the Indigenous Literacy Foundation, an organisation close to my family’s heart.
We’ve also supported the launch of Yellamundie, Voices & Faces of First Nations People in Sydney with all profits going towards Redfern Jarjum College, whose mission is to educate urban Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children who are not participating or coping in mainstream education.
I’m very proud to be part of Pledge 1% and are always looking at new ways to evolve how we do good in the world and involve more people and organisations to come with us on this journey. We all gain by giving and I firmly believe successful organisations now and into the future will be the ones that put initiatives like this at the core of what they do.
On this #GivingTuesday, I would like to thank Pledge 1% for being a force for good in this world we all call home.
