Who is the Give Where You Live Foundation? Since 1954, the Give Where You Live Foundation has been bringing individual donors, corporate supporters and community partners together to help our region’s most vulnerable people - to work together to Build Better Communities. At the core our mission is creating long-term sustainable change for our most vulnerable community members. Integral to that is our ability to innovate, think and act with imagination and create strong regional partnerships. Despite being one of the largest community grant makers in the country our focus is on long term impact - we want to be known as change makers not grant makers. The Give Where You Live Foundation is a community foundation aiming to solve one of the most complex and entrenched social issues in our community - disadvantage. We do this by implementing our programs (Feed Geelong, GROW and Engage) as well as allocating grants - $1.76 million in 2016.

MESSAGE FROM
CEO and Chairman The 2015 / 2016 financial year has been a busy, challenging and rewarding year. Along with the rest of the community we felt the loss and downsizing of some of our largest community contributors. Despite that loss, our community continued to amaze us with support, generosity, compassion and resilience. Through this, we have been fortunate to build many new partnerships and relationships with government, business and of course the community sector. These new partnerships and many existing ones have enabled the Give Where You Live Foundation to further spread our impact throughout the G21 region.
Our commitment to our mission will see us continue to strive to better measure our organisation’s impact and the impact of our grants and programs over the coming financial year. Despite being a part of a resilient and generous community there are still members of our community that need more help and change. We want to be a stronger catalyst for positive social change and further develop our, and the region’s, use of the collective impact framework. Our commitment is to provide leadership where required and ensure that we apply sufficient resources in a transparent, effective and efficient manner to enable us to create positive, systemic change.
The Foundation’s total revenue grew by 8% during the year which enabled us to contribute and return, over $2 million to the community. At the same time we have been able to grow our corpus by an additional $100,000 to $2.8 million further ensuring our sustainability into the future. These financial results were achieved through the incredible support that the organisation continues to receive from the community, in particular through increased income from events, fundraising campaigns, corporate support, public appeals and from government grants for the GROW Project.
We of course need to thank a great many people and organisations for their contributions. To all the donors, corporate supporters and sponsors, workplace givers, event participants, community partners, volunteers, trusts and foundations that have supported us throughout the year we say a huge thank you.Your support has been unwavering. It allows us to continue our work for the Geelong G21 region and is something that we will never take for granted.
We are very pleased to say the 2015 / 2016 year has seen our partnership with G21 strengthen through the GROW Project. The GROW initiative which started with a desire by both organisations to do something different, but more importantly to make a real difference, really began to take shape during the year. We welcomed Anne O’Brien and Liz Everist to the GROW team and they have been tireless in the launch and initial implementation of the Business Plan, obtaining 20 committed signatories to the GROW Compact and more recently launching the Alcoa Regional Procurement Toolkit and new website. We were also delighted to announce that the Foundation will receive $1 million of funding from the Victorian Sate Government over the next 5 years which has been secured to implement the GROW Business Plan. 2016 saw us welcome the 50th intake of the Loaned Executive Program and we thanked the 1500 plus participants who have volunteered their time to the program with a celebration inside the Ford Stamping Plant. This was a special celebration of not only the Loaned Executive Program, but also the unique and enduring partnership built between Ford Australia and the Give Where You Live Foundation. We acknowledged the sad passing of two friends of the Give Where You Live Foundation throughout the year; Ruth Fagg, who was not only a dedicated financial supporter of our organisation, but also shared many celebrations and events with us along with her husband the late Bert Fagg. We also farewelled Life Member and former board member Rob Kitson who dedicated over 14 years as Treasurer of the then United Way Geelong Region.
Thank you also to the board of Give Where You Live who willingly and voluntarily give of their time and expertise. We place an extremely high value on good governance and we are fortunate to have had the continued effort and drive of all of our board members. Finally to the staff of Give Where You Live. The amount of work completed by the staff reaches much further than simply fundraising and grant making. The staff of Give Where You Live are the true engine of the organisation. Their commitment to our mission, and their passion to engage in the community in order to make a difference across the region is inspiring. We cannot thank the staff enough for their ongoing work.

Give Where You Live Foundation
IMPACT 2015-2016 The Give Where You Live Foundation seeks to solve one of the most complex and entrenched social issues in our community – disadvantage, we undertake this in two ways:: 1.
Providing grants to community organisations supporting the delivery of services and programs impacting the root causes and symptoms of disadvantage. Three strategic frameworks (Health & Wellbeing, Live & Learn and Survive & Thrive) guide our grants and allow us to match donations with critical community needs related to disadvantage.
2.
Developing, implementing and managing our own programs targeting disadvantage directly; Feed Geelong, GROW and ENGAGE – Youth in Philanthropy.
Live & Learn Grants Live & Learn Grants support education and employment as pathways out of disadvantage. Longitudinal studies across the world indicate that education success rates at school and post-school are in good part determined by social class origin - in particular parents’ wealth, occupational status, education and aspirations. Education inequality then flows to employment inequality. As a result Give Where You Live Foundation provides grants related to School Readiness, Disengaged Young People and Education, Training and Employment Pathways. From July 2015 to June 2016,16 organisations implemented grants totalling $573,790. These grants contributed to the following impacts:
Learning Readiness
Disengaged Youth
IMPROVED PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL, LANGUAGE AND LITERACY SKILLS OF 1,418 CHILDREN SO THEY CAN START SCHOOL READY TO SUCCEED.
INCREASED THE ENGAGMENT AND CONNECTION OF 1,731 YOUNG PEOPLE TO THEIR SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY.
FOR EXAMPLE: 800 children received support through programs provided by Reading Out of Poverty in Corio, Norlane, Whittington, Belmont, Cloverdale and St. Albans Park. 29 children participated with their young parents in developmentally appropriate learning opportunities through the Bluebird Foundation’s Dabble and Dance Program, helping to prepare children for kindergarten or school.
FOR EXAMPLE: 20 young people participated in the Salvo Connect Just Brass Music Program, learning new skills, gaining selfconfidence and increased connection to their school and community. 39 adolescent refugees who received counselling and case management support from CatholicCare now feel safer, more confident, better positioned to access employment and more connected to their community. 12 vulnerable young people were re-engaged in education through their involvement in a documentary film making process. Facilitated by Somebody’s Daughter Theatre, gaining new skills, improved self-esteem and selfconfidence and felt more motivated to engage with their education.
In June 2016 the Give Where You Live Foundation awarded 11 new Live & Learn Grants totalling $434,950 for implementation July 2016 to June 2017.

Survive & Thrive Grants Survive & Thrive Grants contribute to the basic levels of economic security including food, shelter, pharmacy and household goods for the most vulnerable people in our community. Low socio-economic resources are a major cause of entrenched and multiple disadvantage. Income inequality is a key issue facing our region and the resulting disadvantage continues to be concentrated in certain geographic areas. As a result Give Where You Live Foundation provides grants related to Homelessness and Housing Support, Financial Skills and Ongoing Financial Strategies, Regional Emergency Relief and basic Food Security. From July 2015 to June 2016, 16 organisations implemented grants totalling $573,790. These grants contributed to the following impacts:
HOMELESSNESS DECREASED RISK OF HOMELESSNESS FOR 415 PEOPLE. FOR EXAMPLE: 90 men struggling with the issue of homelessness were provided with respite from the street and were supported to connect with other services and to find long term stable housing solutions through Samaritan House Geelong. 15 young people who were homeless or at risk of homelessness were provided a safe and secure place to live and support to improve their well-being - health, education, employment and training opportunities through The Ladder Foundation Project.
EMERGENCY RELIEF FOOD RELIEF TO 4,847 MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO WERE EXPERIENCING AN IMMEDIATE NEED. FOR EXAMPLE: 520 of our community’s most vulnerable adults received access to meals, a food pantry and material aid from The Outpost, who provided over 45,000 meals in the last year. 375 men, women and children in Norlane experiencing food insecurity accessed nutritional food through Urban Seed Programs, including a people’s pantry, cooking classes and education and community meals.
In June 2016 the Give Where You Live Foundation awarded 11 new Survive & Thrive Grants totalling $370,000 for implementation July 2016 to June 2017.

Health & Wellbeing Grants Health & Wellbeing Grants improve social inclusion and access, as well as physical and mental health. Good health is not shared equally across the region, reflecting the social determinants of health. Health status and the determinants of health vary markedly between the life stages, from conception through to infancy, early childhood, youth, adulthood and older adulthood. Analysis also suggests that socioeconomic factors have a large impact on health. As a result Give Where You Live Foundation provides grants related to: Healthy Ageing, Living with a Disability, Reducing Risky Choices and Life Crises. From July 2015 to June 2016, 31 organisations implemented grants totalling $812,400. These grants contributed to the following impacts:
SENIORS
DISABILITY
DECREASED THE EFFECTS OF SOCIAL ISOLATION FOR 2,099 SENIORS.
IMPROVED QUALITY OF LIFE FOR 2,248 PEOPLE OF ALL AGES LVING WITH A DISABILTY.
FOR EXAMPLE:
FOR EXAMPLE:
70 hearing impaired individuals received support through awareness raising sessions and hearing rehabilitation provided by Better Hearing Geelong helping to increase their self-confidence and decrease anxiety, depression and social isolation.
364 people with intellectual disabilities were engaged by Back to Back Theatre in high quality community programs which provided participants with access to supportive relationships, built interpersonal ties, individual efficacy and self-esteem, and experienced increased opportunities for self-expression and enjoyment.
2,016 seniors in aged care facilities and hospitals received weekly visits from Delta Society volunteers and their dogs, helping improve their overall health and wellbeing.
53 individuals who have experienced a stroke were engaged in specialised support groups and other activities by The Stroke Association of Victoria, helping to decrease communication barriers, improve conversation ability, reintegration into community activities and building selfconfidence/esteem.
In June 2016 the Give Where You Live Foundation awarded 29 new Health & Wellbeing Grants totalling $823,845 for implementation July 2016 to June 2017.

STRATEGIC INITATIVES
Youth in Philanthropy The Foundation has a long standing and ongoing commitment to reducing disadvantage by working with organisations and programs that provide emergency relief, especially food assistance. Feed Geelong seeks to improve the immediate food insecurity for those most in need in our community by raising funds and awareness of this issue through; the Feed Geelong Appeal, managing a significant emergency relief voucher program, and building the capacity of community organisations distributing and providing food to those in need through grants.
ENGAGE is a youth philanthropy program of the Give Where You Live Foundation in partnership with Barwon Child,Youth & Family and Gforce Employment Solutions. The program educates and empowers young people age 15-25 years old in the G21 region to effect positive change, by identifying youth issues that are important to them and making grants to organisations working on these issues. In 2015 / 2016 the program partners developed the program plan and timeline and recruited 12 diverse young people to kick off the implementation of a pilot program in July 2016.
The Foundation’s work in these areas have resulted in:

COMPACT SIGNATORIES
GROW has leveraged Government funds to implement the GROW Strategic Plan and encouraged the alignment of investments into new infrastructure and major projects, generating jobs in target communities, for example: 20 local organisations (as at November 2015) have signed up to the GROW compact committing to integrating the GROW philosophy that a prosperous community cares for the well-being of all its members - into their own company’s values and daily operations, this has resulted in:
PARTNERSHIPS WITH SOCIAL ENTERPRISES
recruitment pathways & Opportunities
working to address disadvantage for example: Barwon Water partnering with Karingal Kommercial to develop a new system of cleaning their car fleet.
for job seekers experiencing disadvantage and barriers to employment, for example: the ongoing Barwon Health partnership with Northern Futures offering supported traineeships and new traineeship opportunities at Barwon Water for people from GROW target communities.
Karingal Kommercial at work with Barwon Water
ALIGNMENT OF INVESTMENTS into new infrastructure and major projects generating jobs in target communities, for example: A $43 million development in Norlane focussing on local employment and procurement.
