How Be Kind Sydney is helping local people in need

“My biggest fear is having to work into my
70’s and struggling to find real long-term work
beyond contract or casual positions."

Who we support

Be Kind Sydney is an initiative of Sydney Community Foundation, fundraising for programs to enrich and transform the Greater Sydney community and beyond. Below are some of the community organisations that have received valuable support.

“This program made me feel I can do anything in this industry and brought back my confidence."

Giving Together Goes Further

Each year Be Kind Sydney and Sydney Women's Fund co-design and fund programs that support locals in need. By giving together to the Be Kind Sydney Appeal, each donation large and small goes further in its impact.

Listening to local communities, we co-design with charity partners and support a range of proven programs and new pilot projects building social and economic resilience in postcodes of greatest need.

Together with our local charity partners and you, we're building stronger Sydney communities.

There is still time to give and every dollar makes a difference.
