Our vision
For our Forde Foundation beneficiaries, and for those people wishing to register with us, our shared vision is to:
Help improve the quality of life through advancing their health, wellbeing and education.
Pay respect and honour their experiences in institutions and systems that were meant to support and care for them as children.
Acknowledge the disadvantages many have had to overcome as a result of their childhood experiences.
Our mission
For over 25 years the Forde Foundation has enhanced the quality of life for people who as a child, were in care in Queensland or resided in a Queensland institution.
It is a perpetual and independent charitable trust that exists to help the lives of people who were in the care of Queensland institutions or foster care.
It achieves this through its transparent and easy to access grants program.
Our grants
Providing Australia-wide assistance and targeted financial support in the areas of education, employment, health and well-being
