6 FROM THE CHAIRMAN, VINCENT FAIRFAX FAMILY FOUNDATION I am very proud of the way the VFFF chose to celebrate its fiftieth anniversary during While recognising this as an important occasion we remained focussed on being charitable. Our commemorative work Through the Lens is an inspiring publication that captured the true essence of the VFFF and its Founders. The 50 th Anniversary Grants Program successfully expressed our gratitude to the outstanding organisations we have supported over 50 years by making capacity building grants to twenty small organisations of $50,000 each. It has been particularly inspiring during our Board meetings this year to hear of the significant impact these grants have made for these organisations who chose how to use the funds. Attendees at the 50th Anniversary event on 1 June 2012 were truly inspired by the performances of Monkey Baa Theatre Company and Musica Viva s Engima Quartet. And all enjoyed the exhibition, which for some was a learning experience and for others a great reminder of why we do what we do. I express my sincere thanks to all those involved in bringing this project together, the Charities, the event team and the VFFF office and also to the Board and Family for engaging in the spirit of our celebration. Since our last AGM in November 2011 we have welcomed four new members to the Vincent Fairfax Family Foundation Ltd. There are now twenty nine members of the Company and it is particularly pleasing to see the commitment to the Company by the younger members of our Family. My involvement in the VFFF started later in life and I remain mindful of the busy life stage of most G3 members and the competing priorities that impact their current capacity for involvement with the Foundation. I appreciate the time that is given to the Foundation by the G3 members and the Board. The VFFF office will continue to provide support and encouragement and ensure that participation is rewarding and enjoyable. Geoff Kells has tendered his resignation from the Company and I thank him for his significant contribution, particularly to Vincent Fairfax Ethics in Leadership program over many years. Quarterly meetings of the Board were held in September, December, March and June and the Board s Audit, Finance and Investment Committee also met four times during the year. Directors and the VFFF office also had two Special Policy meetings which were particularly productive in terms of clarifying our strategy and goals and ensuring we have the best chance of making an impact. During the year the Board reviewed the Trustee Emeritus policy and I am thankful that Geoffrey White has agreed to continue in this role. I continue to be most appreciative of Geoffrey s work in representing the Foundation at important functions and sharing his contacts and relevant articles with the VFFF office. In the past financial year, eighty six organisations were supported, a significant increase from the fifty four in the 2010/11 year, with distributions amounting to $7,676,267 ($7,230,535 in ). I am mindful of our need to maintain fiscal responsibility to ensure the Foundation complies with its Governing Deed as our distributable income declines as a result of the current financial environment. This is a situation common to businesses and other not for profit organisations and the next 12 months are expected to be challenging. The Board are considering how best to respond to the falling level of distributable income. It is likely that we will see more collaboration and sharing 4

7 of our valuable non financial resources as a way of ensuring we continue to reach our philanthropic goals notwithstanding these financial constraints. The Board have agreed that the VFFF should be able to consider as special distributions grants sought for projects that are clearly in line with the Founders interests and intentions. These special distributions may be funded from the Corpus of the Foundation if there is insufficient income available to make the distributions as they fall due. A project that has fallen into this category is a distribution approved for the Bicentenary of the Botanic Gardens in 2016 recognising Lady Nancy Fairfax s special interest in the Gardens. The Board are also considering an expansion of the place based programs as an opportunity to increase our impact through the powerful use of non financial resources. The Board has discussed dedicating up to 30% of distributable income to the placed based programs. The Board are committed to ensuring the VFFF office has the appropriate time and resources to dedicate to these programs so they have the very best change of long term success. The commitment required of VFFF in our place based programs is very long term. I am conscious that the VFFF cannot be all things to all people. Our aim is to maintain relevance and focus our funding and resources on our key priorities. It is important to revisit the VFFF policy annually and ensure its ongoing relevance. With this in mind I was pleased that in June 2012 the Board adopted a new mission statement: VFFF aspires to a stronger and brighter future for Australians in NSW and remote areas of the north. We help disadvantaged young people reach their educational and social potential. We enhance services and opportunities for rural and regional communities and support a resilient and sustainable agricultural sector. We support a spiritually rich society that values Christian faith in action. The succinct articulation of the mission of the VFFF will assist in providing direction to the Board and the VFFF office as they go about their work. In what was a year of great significance for the Foundation I thank my fellow Directors for their insightful contributions as we celebrated our 50 th anniversary milestone and refined the guidelines from which we draw inspiration and reference. Given the difficult economic climate within which we operate I thank James Millar who chairs the Audit, Finance and Investment Committee and members of that committee for their perseverance and wisdom. I also sincerely thank Michael Evans who retired from AFIC in November 2011 having made a great contribution to our work since I thank Dr Sue Anne Wallace for her considerable efforts and wish her well in her retirement. Sue Anne leaves us an undeniably solid base from which to continue our work. I thank Emily Fuller, Prabhleen Ahuja and Sue Goudie for the talent and commitment shown consistently as they assisted Sue Anne and the Board in their endeavours. We welcome Jenny Wheatley to the new combined position of CEO to the Family Office and VFFF and I look forward to working with her. T. V. Fairfax AM Chairman 5

8 FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER A review of the Board minutes for the 2012 year demonstrates the focus of the VFFF team on delivering tangible outcomes identified at the Special Policy meeting in July 2011 and the team retreat in September. A clear path was set for the VFFF as a result of that meeting and significant progress has been made. During the year an evaluation was undertaken for each of the VFFF s themes which resulted in refinement of our priority goals and target beneficiaries. A streamlined process for commitments was introduced. Emily Fuller developed an Outcomes Report which has enhanced VFFF s ability to learn from our grant making and has been studied as a model of best practice by other Foundations. We have continued our placed based program in Condobolin, working closely with the local community and responding to the needs they identify. While recognising this is a long term project it is pleasing to see that the small grants program is now a reality, a working committee consisting of local organisations that would not usually engage has been formed and is identifying ways to collaborate and the local council is working with us to determine how best to create a pathway for future leaders. We provided core funding to Western Plains Regional Development Centre which has facilitated the appointment of Tammy Bugg as their CEO. In March 2012 the Board agreed six goals, being to: 6 1. Have an impact by funding priority outcomes within each theme; 2. Educate the Board and staff; 3. Achieve investments results of CPI + 5%; 4. Give at least $7.5m annually within the Founders intentions; 5. Keep the Family informed; 6. Achieve a leadership role in Philanthropy. Work completed leading up to the identification of these goals and following their adoption in the last quarter of the 2012 year and the revision of the mission statement in June 2012, discussed by the Chairman in his report, has shaped the focus and actions of the VFF in In 2013 we will continue to reference our actions to the mission and goals and be prepared to refine them for new information and developments. The sector is becoming increasingly focused on collaboration as a way of achieving greater outcomes. A significant demonstration of the benefits of collaboration during 2012 was the sponsorship by the VFFF of The Foundation Project where the Helen MacPherson Smith Trust, The Myer Foundation, Perpetual, The Ian Potter Foundation, The RE Ross Trust, Philanthropy Australia and QUT come together to see what they could do to reduce the administrative burden on grant seekers. The key outputs from The Foundation Project were a set of core principles for grant application and reporting information and a common application form and acquittal report for small grants. The core principals adopted were: Information will be requested only if it will be used; The effort expended in application and reporting processes will be proportional to the size and risk of the grant; Duplicate information requests will be minimised;

9 Terminology will be defined and standardised in order to limit the variability in information requested; Joint reporting will be established for projects that are collaboratively co funded. Using these principals David Hardie developed a common small grants application form and common small grants acquittal report. The forms were endorsed by community sector organisations, fundraising consultancies and other philanthropic organisations prior to their endorsement by the Foundations. They have been placed on the Philanthropy Australian web site and have been well utilised by small grant applicants. The success of this project is a great credit to the hard work and commitment of Sue Anne Wallace and David Hardie. Members of the Foundation Project have agreed to continue their collaboration and are actively considering options for the next project. The VFFF will continue as an active member of the Foundation Project and encourage broader participation and tangible outcomes. Following on from the outcomes of a retreat conducted by the Third Generation in March 2012 the Directors approved the establishment of the Small Grants Committee. The purpose of the Committee is to consider one off grant requests for amounts under $25,000. Six G3 s are the inaugural Committee members and they have been well supported by the VFFF team. David Hardie and Prabhleen Ahuja have assisted the G3 s by establishing the framework, processes and mentoring guidelines. The Small Grants Committee met twice in 2012 and made distributions totalling $43,072. The VFFF team will continue to actively support the Committee as it continues into 2013 with significant momentum and enthusiasm. The Cousins Committee established in 2011 with an allocation of $100,000 continues to be an opportunity for G3 to bring forward projects for consideration that are of particular interest to them. Funds of $70,000 were expended in 2011/12. The launch of the VN Book, a communication tool for VFFF members similar to Facebook, in early October 2012 was seen as an opportunity to increase participation in the Cousins Committee through better communication during The continued successful contribution to the Foundation by the G3 s through the Small Grants Committee and the Cousins Committee is unique to the VFFF and the initiatives have been discussed and studied by other Foundations and Philanthropy participants. This is something all associated with the VFFF should reflect upon with great pride. As we issue this report the Australian Charities and Not for profits Commission Bill 2012 (ACNC Bill) and the Australian Charities and Not for profits Commission (Consequential and Transitional) Bill 2012 (ACNC Consequential and Transitional Bills) have been passed by Parliament and are awaiting Royal Assent. It is expected that sometime in December the registration and regulation of charities in Australia will pass from the Australian Taxation Office to the ACNC which is to act as an independent and specialised entity. We will monitor the direction taken by the ACNC and as a leading Foundation be quick to respond to actions that cause us concern and offer our thoughts and guidance as the organisation establishes itself. The 2013 focus of the VFFF team will be to continue the implementation of the 2011 to 2016 strategic plan and goals, particularly exploring how we may increase the impact and reach of our efforts by the giving of our time, resources, know how and information notwithstanding the financial constraints under which we operate due to the sustained downturn in the market. 7

10 I take the opportunity to express a heartfelt thank you to each of: Sue Anne Wallace for turning concepts into reality, undertaking critical policy work in 2012 to ensure the VFFF continues to make decisions that count and that provided me with a clear path to follow and the information I needed in those early weeks. Emily Fuller for your commitment and spirit, particularly displayed in the Foundation s good work in Condobolin, for your generosity in guiding me to the right people, networks and organisations and for the high five after our first joint meeting in Week 1. Prabhleen Ahuja for the important work you undertook with our G3 s and your patience in taking me through those early Preliminary Enquiries. David Hardie for driving a tangible outcome from the Foundation project and for joining our team. I look forward to your continued contribution. Sue Goudie for your unfailingly cheery disposition, your second to none skills as an effective but ever so polite gatekeeper for the team, and your willingness to give me a go and execute new tasks. I also thank the Chairman, Boards and Committees of the VFFF and VFELF and the Trustee Emeritus for their work in 2012 and for your generosity both in terms of time and insight over my first few months in this role. It is an exciting time to be part of the philanthropic sector as it is exposed to increasing social needs, regulatory requirements, enhanced collaboration and new ideas from its peak body all while operating within sustained financial restraints. The Foundation is well placed to meet these challenges and take full advantage of opportunities as they present themselves. Jenny Wheatley Chief Executive Officer 8

14 VFFF DISTRIBUTIONS 1 JULY JUNE 2012 Ninety five distributions were made by VFFF during the financial year to eighty six organisations. This accounted for a total of $7,676,267, compared with $7,230,535 in the previous financial year. VFFF total distributions since inception, including forward commitments, now exceed $110 million. In order to track funding distributed to the former and revised themes, the new ones are separately identified with the notation of 2012 following the theme. The former themes will be phased out as distributions are acquitted. Theme $ Percentage 2,844,500 37% Community 1,380,376 18% Rural and regional 821,734 11% Christianity 665,000 9% Community wellbeing ,750 8% Education ,200 1% Christianity ,000 1% Rural and regional % 50th Anniversary Grants Program 550,000 7% Place based Program 529,707 7% Cousins Committee 70,000 1% Other 1 25,000 0% Total $7,676, % Education 2012 Christianity % 1% Rural and Regional % 50th Anniversary Grants 7% PBP 7% Community Cousin's Wellbeing 2012 Committee 1% 8% Christianity 9% Community 18% Children and Young People 37% Rural and Regional 11% Other 0% 1 Leading Membership fee of Philanthropy Australia 12

15 By combining the new and former themes, /Education accounted for 38% of all distributions (31% in 2011), Community/Community wellbeing 26% (32% in 2011), Rural and regional 11% (22% in 2011) and Christianity 10% (8% in 2011). 50 th Anniversary grants accounted for 7% of funds distributed (6% 2011) and the Cousins Committee accounted for 1% in 2011 and VFFF made its first distributions to the Place based Program during the financial year, which accounted for 7% of total funding. The decreased proportion of funding to the Rural and regional theme reflects a significant narrowing of the scope of this theme adopted in September

16 NEW FUNDING INITIATIVES Abbeyfield Australia Goulburn Society Abbeyfield Goulburn Disability Housing $50,000 Community The project undertaken, namely the purchase of a property and the building of a house to meet the independent housing aspirations of young adults with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities, is now a reality. The total cost of the project to date has been $2,217,210, of which we received grants from the Federal and State Governments of $1,850,000. The balance of $367, has been met by donations, fundraising, interest and GST returns. Your very generous donation of $50,000 was approximately the equivalent of the construction and fit out of one resident s room and ensuite. The approval of our request for assistance from VFFF was met with great enthusiasm from the Society, as at that time we were struggling to see the project to completion. Many thanks for your great support, such a worthwhile and overlooked area of need. Accessible Arts Supported Studio Initiative $50,000 Community With funding provided by VFFF, Accessible Arts is implementing the Supported Studio Initiative in A supported studio is a sustained, creative environment that fosters and supports the individual practice of visual artists with disability. The project aims to provide, connect and promote a supported studio network for emerging and established artists with disability while facilitating and encouraging dialogue between those studios and the broader professional and educational, contemporary art community. Approximately one million of the 19% of Australians living with disability are engaged in the development, creation and experience of the arts. ACT Deafness Resource Centre Hearing Aider Program $64,000 Community VFFF funding has enabled the ACT Deafness Resource Centre's Hearing Aider Program to continue and expand into almost all ACT and Queanbeyan Aged Care Residences/Nursing Homes. Program Coordinator, Ms Desley Rocks supports hearing impaired residents by providing hearing aid maintenance. Care consists of cleaning and battery change along with information on managing a hearing aid and assistive listening devices as well as recommendations to staff for repairs, a visit to the audiologist or a GP if any ear health issue is discovered. In addition, Desley trains other volunteers and on site Aged Care workers as Hearing Aiders'. The Coordinator now undertakes 17 visits a month (up from 11) to nursing homes and retirement villages in the ACT and Queanbeyan NSW. Some 617 individual appointments have occurred in the last financial year. 14

17 The simple operation of cleaning a hearing aid and replacing the battery brings a magic smile and provides the opportunity for our elders to participate in the age old comforting tradition of chatting with others. Australian Children s Music Foundation Establishing a music program in five schools in Taree $50,000 The funding received from VFFF is being used for a three year music education project in five schools in the Taree area. To date, weekly music programs have commenced in Taree High School with a drumming program for at risk students and in Chatham Public School with a group percussion program for primary students. Percussion instruments and djembe drums have been permanently donated to both schools to provide an ongoing resource for these students. Australian Museum Trust Pacific Islander Cultural Reconnection Project $69,352 Drawing on its world class cultural collections, the Museum is aiming to build cultural awareness among young people from Sydney s Pacific community convicted of violent criminal offences. Through addressing some of the symptoms of cultural dislocation, the aim is to help reduce the probability that individuals will re offend. Thelma Thomas, an experienced youth worker of Fijian family background, has recently commenced at the Museum as Social Worker/Project Coordinator with funding from VFFF. Thelma has an impressive record of success using music, dance and digital story telling to engage troubled young people of Pacific background, and she brings to the Museum fantastic new ideas about how to use the cultural collections. In particular, the Museum is keen to expand its capacity to reach out to Pacific youth in detention and Thelma s appointment will allow a deeper working relationship with organisations like Shine for Kids and Baxter Detention Centre. Australian Research Alliance for Children and Youth Nurturing Child Readiness to Learn Program (right@home) $250,000 In Australia today, one in eight children lives in poverty. This poverty puts their development and learning abilities at risk, and the evidence demonstrates these children usually don t catch up they fall further behind. Education gives children the best chance of a future without poverty. ARACY, along with leading childhood experts, identified that an evidence based sustained nurse home visiting program, delivered to vulnerable families for the first two years of their child s life, is the most effective way to improve children s health, wellbeing and learning outcomes. With VFFF s support, ARACY developed an Australian model called right@home that focuses on empowering parents to nurture their children s learning abilities. A four year randomised controlled trial is being conducted with vulnerable families in two Australian states to test its efficacy. Recruitment of families into the trial will commence shortly. Australian Scholarships Foundation Boosting the organisations capacity to scale up (core capacity funding) $75,000 Community 15

18 Funds received from VFFF have supported Australian Scholarships Foundation s (ASF) own capacity to continue to offer scholarships for directors and staff of not for profits (NFPs). ASF negotiates with education partners (23 to date) for free or substantially discounted training and education programs to make available to NFPs. Their mission is to strengthen the NFP sector through training and development opportunities, as most NFPs simply do not have the funds to train their staff. ASF is a low cost, near virtual organisation, with only one paid staff member typically assessing applications in excess of three times the number of scholarships awarded. They have awarded over 1200 scholarships worth $3.5 million since 2008, launched the world s first Fulbright Professional Scholarship in Non Profit Leadership this year, and will shortly announce a pioneering longitudinal scholarships impact study. Australian Theatre for Young People The Tender Age Development of script, content and an education kit $39,500 Australian Theatre for Young People was funded to develop a dramatic work, The Tender Age examining some critical issues facing young people involving social media, cyber safety and bullying which was presented at Carriageworks, a major contemporary performance space in Eveleigh, Sydney, in August and September. Sydney Opera House s Education Department also presented performances on 14 and 15 June which were relayed via video conferencing live to regional schools in New South Wales during which students watched and responded to the work as it occurred. This innovative experiment had the capacity to bring the work and its themes into every school in Australia. Bangarra Dance Theatre Rekindling Education Program $100,000 Education 2012 Rekindling is a creative and cultural program designed for Indigenous young people in outer urban and regional centres in NSW. The NSW Governor launched the program on 24 October During October and November 2012, preliminary meetings will be conducted with participating Aboriginal communities prior to the workshops and gatherings taking place in the early part of Former Bangarra dancer, Sidney Saltner has been appointed as Youth Program Director for Rekindling and will be joined by two experienced Workshop Leaders, also former Bangarra artists. Local members of Parliament in NSW are showing support for this program in their regions and additional funding is being sourced to ensure sustainability. Barnardos Australia Purchase of a minibus for the Indigenous Learning Centre in Wellington, NSW $50,000 VFFF has provided the most valuable of resources to the Barnardos Indigenous Learning Centre in Wellington. Since the bus was purchased Barnados has been able to extend delivery of the Learning Centre and increase capacity by 50%. The bus operates morning and afternoon and allows staff to access Indigenous children who live out of town and who would otherwise generally miss both 16

19 school and the Learning Centre as they (and their parents) are not awake on time. The bus also allows staff to engage with parents in the afternoons when children are dropped back home. CareerTrackers Indigenous Internship Program CareerTrackers organisational development $100,000 CareerTrackers continues to make steady progress towards their goals of students obtaining internships and organisational capacity building. Progress highlights are Three new staff members have joined CareerTrackers in the capacity of Student Advisors 100% of students commencing internships in June completed and have been invited back for the summer period CareerTrackers CEO and Student Advisor travelled to Dallas, Texas USA to meet with INROADS and leverage their student training program, internal operating tools and other core delivery components Creation of participant, employer and university handbooks to ensure clarity of CareerTrackers to each stakeholder group CareerTrackers Board have adopted a comprehensive committee structure with clearly defined Charters Centre for Independent Studies Religion and Free Society Program $45,000 Christianity 2012 The Religion and a Free Society program (RFS) contributes to greater understanding of key issues specific to the freedom of religion and belief in Australia. To date, the RFS program has held a roundtable discussion about anti semitism and released the forum discussion papers, collectively entitled What s New with Anti Semitism? Planning is advanced for the key event in the RFS calendar, the annual Acton Lecture on Religion and Freedom with speaker Dr Ryan Messmore, President of Campion College. Ongoing plans include theological economical research, seminars, roundtable discussions, interviews and accompanying publications. Centre for Multicultural Youth Development of a vocational education and training (VET) accredited unit 'Work Effectively with Young People,' for individuals working with young refugees. $41,250 Community wellbeing 2012 Young people from refugee backgrounds are some of the most vulnerable people in our community. They are also some of the most resilient. Those who have students, clients or patients from refugee backgrounds need to be able to understand their backgrounds and the impact this has on their life and have the skills to capture their strengths and turn these towards constructive engagement with the Australian community. This project brings together a team of sector experts to develop a Vocational Education and Training (VET) accredited unit of competency that can be inserted into a range of training courses or used as stand alone training. 17

20 Centre for Non Violence (formerly Emergency Accommodation & Support Enterprise) Establishing Solving the Jigsaw in NSW $67,070 Solving the Jigsaw aims to reduce the incidence and impact of violence and bullying in children's lives through facilitating societal change, led by school communities. This project focuses on introducing the program into NSW through the provision of professional development training and facilitator training in various locations. Teachers and others who work in schools are then equipped to deliver Solving the Jigsaw in their school communities. Two series of professional development training have taken place in Wagga Wagga and Byron Bay in 2012, with 38 people participating. The manner in which violence is named and the steps to opening up conversation is straight forward and simple Also re enforced for me (was) the effect of bullying on kids and the impact we can have on students wellbeing and learning if we work to resolve this behaviour/culture in schools. (Participant) Centre for Public Christianity What Australia Believes: a longitudinal study of Australia's religious landscape $25,000 Christianity The Centre for Public Christianity undertook a scoping study into the need for, and cost of, a national survey of attitudes towards Christianity, ethics and religion. Previous research was reviewed for strengths and limitations in regard to scope, size, diversity and methodological rigor. Forty five academics and researchers from across Australia were consulted and a research brief was written. Child Abuse Prevention Service Mobile child and family support service $65,000 Child Abuse Prevention Service (CAPS) mobile family support program delivers a wide range of primary prevention, family support and community development services and activities throughout Greater Sydney, specifically targeting regions and communities with identifiable vulnerabilities. Through the support of VFFF, a dedicated mobile family support worker was employed in 2012 to further facilitate the expansion of this valuable initiative. As such, this funding has contributed to the provision of 14 additional evidence based parenting groups, case work delivery to 42 vulnerable families and 4 major community development initiatives, and has supported the sustainability of this innovative program. Creativity Australia Sydney Sings $37,500 Community The With One Voice program is focused around community choirs that are designed to build social capital, break down non vocational barriers to employment (low self confidence, poor communication) and enhance social inclusion, diversity and wellbeing.

Sydney Sings is made up of 50% paid and 50% donated places with a focus on accessible, multigenerational, multicultural and inclusive engagement. Ecotrust Australia Indigenous Knowledge Systems capacity building $126,265 Community Working with community partners, this project has enabled the retrieval and documentation of cultural knowledge holdings for Indigenous communities across Australia s north. These achievements have been met through: 1) the collation of dispersed information, 2) the delivery of tailored training programs, 3) recording the traditional names and locations of important places, and 4) developing user friendly and interactive systems that foster inter generational and cross cultural knowledge transfer. The work has focused on providing communities with skills and resources to manage their own intellectual property and to apply new techniques to access and share traditional knowledge of people and place. Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal CATCH (Culture, Arts, Tourism and Community Heritage) and CARA Programs (Caring for Aged in Rural Australia) $400,000 Community wellbeing 2012 In June 2012, VFFF provided the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) with multi year funding commitments for the CARA Program (supporting projects and activities that benefit older people) and the Culture, Arts, Tourism and Community Heritage (CATCH) Program. Both programs will focus on small rural communities. The first round of CARA grants will be announced in December 2012 and the CATCH program will open early This funding continues a productive partnership between VFFF and FRRR, which had an early childhood focus over the last three years through the Rural Early Childhood Program. Genr8 Schools Ministries School Chaplaincy $60,000 Christianity Genr8 Schools Ministries provides chaplains to NSW state schools under the National School Chaplaincy and Student Welfare Program (NSCSWP). The VFFF distribution assists employment of four Regional Chaplaincy Advisers to support the 350% expansion from 43 chaplaincies in 2011 to 151 in Regional Chaplaincy Advisers recruit and manage chaplains, advise schools and local supporting churches, and conduct performance reviews. They set up local Chaplaincy Support Committees to promote chaplains work and raise additional financial support for increased hours and effectiveness. In this way VFFF helps local communities leverage Federal seed grants for longterm chaplaincy support to students, parents and teachers. 19

22 Gospel Patrons Society Scholarship Fund for Ministry Apprentices $60,000 Christianity Gospel Patrons Society has been excited by the 45 quality applications for Ministry Apprentice Scholarships received, more than twice as many as last year. These include two from Indigenous ministry groups, a number from rural areas and many from contexts currently not training apprentices. They are in the process of evaluating the applications and will take the recommendations to the GPS Trustees on 2 October. The $60,000 VFFF grant has provided impetus for a further $31,000 in donations which will be matched by a generous donor. Therefore 12 scholarships will be awarded to men and women training for Christian ministry. Griffith Baptist Church Senior Counsellor for Barnabas House Crisis and Accommodation and Counselling Centre $88,857 Community The refurbishment process commenced in February and Kevin Webb has commenced his role as Senior Counsellor and CEO. The Centres doors were opened in March to accommodate 80 floodevacuated people. Due to the high demand from female clients, many with sexual assault issues, a female counsellor has also been appointed. This brings staff to three and includes three of the five registered counsellors in the region. The referral base has widened and the Centre is starting to be better known in the area. The official opening on 27 October 2012 was attended by Federal and State members for the Riverina as well as the Mayor and General Manager of the Griffith City Council. High Resolves Rollout the High Resolves Global Citizenship and Leadership Programs to 40 schools in disadvantaged communities in the western Sydney region $314,417 High Resolves has completed its first year of a three year project funded by VFFF to rollout the High Resolves Global Citizenship and Leadership Program to disadvantaged communities in western Sydney. The project is on track with an initial 10 schools and over 1,000 students undertaking the program in 2012 and a further 20 schools expected to commence in The VFFF support has provided financial assistance to subsidise the program cost for schools to be able to participate and it has also enabled significant enhancement to the student led social action project curriculum used with disengaged students. Institute of Postcolonial Studies A study into the role of religion in the establishment of Australian philanthropic entities $15,000 Community This research identified and analysed the Trust Deeds of thirty five (10%) of foundations listed in the Australian Directory of Philanthropy. All of these Wills specified religion or social justice as a major funding area. The initial, (inconclusive) results appear to support Wendy Scaife s (Queensland University of Technology) findings, that values rather than religion were the primary motivating factor for philanthropists in establishing perpetual foundations. 20

23 Lake George Men Shed Inc. To install tanks, composting toilet and a grey water system $12,000 Rural and regional Unforeseen delays with weather and tradesmen have delayed the completion of the facilities.

Moorambilla Voices Moorambilla Mum to support choir participants in North West NSW $30,000 Rural and regional For seven years, Moorambilla Voices has delivered high level Arts, cultural and social support to remote, regional and Indigenous children from the North West NSW with four and five day residency camps and a three day festival of five concerts, in Coonamble and Baradine, to over 2,000 people. In 2012, VFFF support established three Moorambilla Mum positions (two Mums and a Dad). They provide advocacy, fundraising, participant co ordination and support before, during and after the camps and festival. These local personnel created an affirming and safe experience for the children 21

24 and youth, many with adverse lives. They developed a true sense of spirit and community amongst the 194 primary and high school participants and their supervisors, parents, local communities and regional schools. This increased their participation, access, engagement and continuing involvement. The creation of these positions greatly enhanced the opportunity and outcomes for the young people and the many local volunteers.

25 New England Conservatorium of Music Outreach Wind Program in Inverell and Warialda $19,080 Rural and regional The Outreach Wind Program was established in January 2012 in the New England and North West region of NSW. Funding was used to purchase instruments for hire and to cover travel costs associated with the program currently teachers are travelling between Armidale, Guyra, Inverell and Warialda to provide lessons and ensemble tuition.

Royal Far West NSW rural and remote outreach program $108,160 Royal Far West is supported in its Outreach program by the Caremobile a mobile treatment and assessment centre, in partnership with Ronald McDonald House Charities. Funding from VFFF is used to provide essential transportation, accommodation and local area access to remote and rural NSW for expert clinical outreach staff including Speech Pathologists, Psychologists and Occupational Therapists. The following NSW towns have been visited Cobar, Lightning Ridge, Goodooga, Walgett, Collarenebri, Quirindi, Werris Creek, Wallabadah, Willow Tree and Orange. Royal Far West s focus is on health care for children, and what is termed as the new morbidity ie children suffering from developmental, behavioural, learning, emotional and mental health issues. There are not enough local services in NSW to provide treatment for the many children who require it. Families are waiting months or years to have the issues addressed locally, particularly, in areas that have limited or no clinical services. 24

27 The Royal Far West Outreach Program reaches directly into communities with high needs, links families with local services, provides referrals, develops ongoing clinical treatment regimens and arranges for families to have intensive assessment at their Manly site. The increased regularity with which the Caremobile has been able to visit these remote communities and support them, as a result of the VFFF grant, is greatly appreciated by the families and service providers.

The beneficiaries are usually those faced with tragic situations. They tend to be those already dependent on Centrelink benefits or on very low incomes who are barely able to cover normal dayto day living costs, and who therefore do not have the financial capacity to cope with unforeseen events. Sole parents, individuals diagnosed with physical and intellectual disability, as well as those suffering mental health issues are representative of beneficiaries. The Wayside Chapel The Wayside Chapel Café Project $57,868 Community Support from VFFF has enabled The Wayside Chapel to employ a full time staff member in the Wayside Café.

It is now common for 50 people to be enjoying a healthy meal at Wayside in the café and surrounding outdoor area. 34

37 University of Technology Health Psychology Unit Early Intervention for Psychosis Project $90,000 The Health Psychology Unit staff set out to investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) for psychosis, run in a community based organisation. This pilot trial shows promising results. Firstly, patients appeared to be improving over and above medication during the course of the treatment, particularly with regards to negative symptoms (which tend to be more treatment resistant than positive symptoms). Secondly, patients accessing treatment found the treatment and service in general to be acceptable. With high attrition a significant problem in this population it is encouraging to note that only six of 25 patients dropped out and the majority of these did so after the assessment session. Once therapy had commenced they generally stayed on. On average patients attended 13.5 one hour therapy sessions. Patients and their case managers both affirmed the value of the treatment (anecdotally and via written questionnaire). This research supports the feasibility of this model which, following a larger trial might be rolled out as part of routine care for patients across NSW. Yalari NSW scholarships $427,131 Yalari currently has 190 students studying at 33 different partnership boarding schools throughout the country.

A special grants program awarded 20 organisations $50,000 grants dedicated to strengthening their operations. The invitation was made to organisations of a small to medium size so that a distribution of $50,000 could make a significant contribution to their capacity. Each completed a brief submission outlining how they would use $50,000 to strengthen their organisation. The distributions were staggered between March 2011 to June 2012, VFFF s 50 th anniversary. On 1 June, VFFF held an event commemorating the anniversary with family members, Directors, staff and the organisations involved.

St James Ethics Centre To grow membership and develop the website of the Centre. PLACE BASED PROGRAM At the Special Policy Meeting in June 2010 VFFF Directors agreed to develop a strategic focus on location based philanthropy, supporting specific communities over a sustained period of time. The basis of this decision was that VFFF could enhance its impact by initiating a longer term place based approach, to complement our funding of individual projects across NSW and remote parts of northern Australia. During late 2010, VFFF conducted extensive research on place based philanthropy and engaged Effective Philanthropy to develop a framework to identify suitable communities in NSW. Throughout 2011, VFFF engaged with two of the identified communities, Condobolin in Lachlan Shire and Taree on the Mid North Coast, to understand the different local needs and opportunities. Both these communities have a high degree of social need and demonstrate strong local leadership and proactivity in aiming to addressing those needs. This work is in its early stages but a number of 37

40 distributions were made in these locations during the financial year, as detailed below. Furthermore, VFFF staff have been working closely with a number of organisations and community groups in Condobolin and Taree over the year, providing support beyond our financial commitments. VFFF is grateful to both these communities for their openness and cooperation. First Steps Count Foundation (previously Good Beginnings) Architectural plans and development approvals for the building of First Steps Count Integrated Child and Family Centre, Taree $49,125 Architects Pidcock Pty Ltd, commenced work in January and prepared a draft ground floor and site plan for the proposed centre in Myall Avenue, Taree. This plan was subsequently revised in consultation with the Management Committee, the community and relevant consultants. A delay in submitting the Development Application to Council occurred due to the requirement for an increased Asset Protection Zone area to satisfy legislative requirements and potential for koala habitat. This necessitates inclusion of a portion of land belonging to the NSW Department of Education, hence negotiations between the Department and Greater Taree City Council for acquisition of that portion of land. This matter is nearing a satisfactory outcome and experts advice that there is no koala habitat in evidence should facilitate the completion of the relevant Consultant s reports. The Landscape Designer has submitted a draft Community Garden design. First Steps Count anticipates submission of the DA to Greater Taree City Council by December Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal Lachlan Region Community Grants Program (LRCGP) $105,000* The first round of applications for the LRCGP was open from 24 September to 2 November with 20 applications totalling $249,030 received exceeding expectations.

41 Penrith Performing and Visual Arts On the Road: a cultural development and arts education program across the Lachlan Shire $40,000 In early 2012, Penrith Performing &Visual Arts conducted research and development in the Lachlan Shire to identify the community s specific needs and how PP&VA could assist to meet these, which resulted in a comprehensive suite of performing and visual arts education projects for delivered in Lachlan Shire in September PP&VA also completed an initial performance training and delivery program with a class of predominantly Indigenous students from Condobolin High School, which focused on the genre of dance theatre. Accompanying this was a photographic exhibition component in Lake Cargelligo featuring works from PP&VA's Snapshot Photographic Competition. Western Plains Regional Development Core organisational support for Western Plains Regional Development Inc, Condobolin $84,282 per audited accounts Since receiving core funding support, Western Plains Regional Development (WPRD) has enacted Tammy Bugg into the role of Acting Executive Officer and increased the Senior Project Officer, Heather Blackley s hours by eight per week. Tammy Bugg has coordinated the Lachlan Region Community Grants Program (launched 24 September) and has been applying for other grants for WPRD. Tammy appreciates ongoing support and mentoring from Anne Coffey (WPRD Treasurer and outgoing AEO) and Emily Fuller from VFFF. She attended the Australian Institute of Management Manage People Effectively course and is registered to attend The New Supervisor training in October. The increase in Heather s hours has ensured continued project management of the many programs run by WPRD, whilst ensuring sufficient time to coordinate and source new projects for the coming year. Wiradjuri Condobolin Corporation Program Co ordinator at the Wiradjuri Study Centre (WSC), Condobolin $80,300 per audited accounts Wiradjuri Condobolin Corporation (WCC) wishes to become a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) to support its vocational programs (and provide an income stream) and suggested a modification of the funded position to Teaching and Community Outreach Coordinator. The position will encourage the use of the WSC by local people, particularly youth as well as manage the RTO process. WCC is in negotiation with a candidate for the role and anticipates the appointment by 19 November. ONGOING FELLOWSHIPS AND SCHOLARSHIPS Arthritis Foundation of Australia AFA ARA Fellowship (Arthritis Foundation of Australia and Australian Rheumatology Association) Dr Tony Kenna of the Human Genetics Group, Diamantina Institute, University of Queensland was the recipient of the 2012 AFA ARA Heald Fellowship awarded by Arthritis Australia for his project entitled the Role of IL 23R + gamma delta T cells in pathogenisis in AS. Recent advances in Dr Kenna s laboratory in understanding the genetics of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) have confirmed a protein in this pathway called IL 23R as being strongly associated with susceptibility to AS. However, nothing is known about expression of IL 23R in AS or how these 39

42 modulate disease. This study follows up on cutting edge genetic findings with functional studies to elucidate the mechanisms by which the associated cellular pathways contribute to disease. This information will be critical in designing novel interventions to halt AS at an early stage. Dr Kenna has published 12 papers in international peer reviewed journals indicating the high quality and output of his research and, is now furthering his career within the musculoskeletal disease area. Through the continued support of VFFF, researchers such as Dr Tony Kenna can advance their studies in arthritis, to improve the quality of life for thousands of arthritis sufferers. Royal Australasian College of Physicians VFFF Post Doctoral Research Fellowship Due to the merit of the applications received, unfortunately the Research Advisory Council has elected not to award the 2012 VFFF Post Doctoral Research Fellowship. VFFF/RACP Research Entry Scholarship The 2012 Scholarship was awarded to Dr Jimmy Shen from Prince Henry s Institute in Victoria to research the use of macrophage MR signaling to regulate systolic blood pressure and cardiovascular remodeling. Toowoomba Preparatory School Prep Scholarships In 2012, VFFF supports two Indigenous students to attend Toowoomba Prep, both in Year 6. Funding from 2007 to 2014 will support at least six different students. University of Western Sydney A distribution provided in 1992 continues to provide the following: Vincent Fairfax Chair in Sustainable Agriculture & Rural Development: Professor Bill Bellotti Vincent Fairfax Scholarship: provides a one year $5,000 scholarship for a first year undergraduate student studying an agriculture related degree (animal science, sustainable agriculture and food security or environmental management). The 2012 scholarship was awarded to Candice Skelton. Candice is studying a Bachelor of Natural Science (Animal Science) at the Hawkesbury campus. Winston Churchill Memorial Trust VFFF support has funded a further four Churchill Fellowships in 2012: The VFFF Churchill Fellowship to investigate cognitive interventions for older people at risk of dementia. Awarded to Dr Alex Bahar Fuchs, Postdoctoral Research Fellow at The Australian National University. Alex will visit the UK, the USA and Israel. The VFFF Churchill Fellowship (in honour of Nancy Fairfax) to research innovative collaborative early childhood educator training programs in Indigenous communities.

43 The VFFF Churchill Fellowship (in honour of Geoffrey White) to explore roles for people in their 70s, 80s and 90s specifically relating to work, volunteering, learning, sport and networks. Awarded to Dr Mike Rungie, CEO, ACH Group (a not for profit group supporting older South Australians). Mike will visit Japan, Canada, the USA, the UK and the Netherlands. 41

44 FROM THE CHAIRMAN, VINCENT FAIRFAX ETHICS IN LEADERSHIP FOUNDATION In 2011/12 the Vincent Fairfax Ethics in Leadership Foundation (VFELF) funded the Vincent Fairfax Fellowship program offered by the Melbourne Business School, the last of four Winston Churchill Fellowships and the final instalment of seed funding provided to ADFA for teaching of and research into the ethical leadership of military leaders. Group 17 of Vincent Fairfax Fellows graduated in June 2012 from the second program run by the Centre for Ethical Leadership (CEL) at Melbourne Business School (MBS). Sixteen Fellows graduated and will continue to work for the next year on projects applying ethical leadership in their workplaces. At the graduation in Melbourne, Gail Kelly gave the annual Vincent Fairfax Oration, and then repeated it a week later in Perth. She started by recounting, In the 36 years that Sir Vincent Fairfax served on the Westpac Board, he made sure that he stopped to have tea with bank managers in all the country towns that he happened to be in. That was the type of leadership which Sir Vincent practised. Ms Kelly spoke candidly on the four themes on which her leadership style is based: vision, adapting to change, generosity of spirit and resilience. The Vincent Fairfax Speakers Series, of which the annual Oration is part, continues to provide an excellent forum to debate issues in ethical leadership with an engaged audience. Late in the 2011/12 year, the CEL concluded an arrangement which Directors are confident will enhance the reach and influence of Vincent Fairfax Fellowship program. With the full support of the Dean and senior leadership of the University of Melbourne, CEL is to re locate its staff to bigger premises at Ormond College at the University of Melbourne and to collaborate with faculty at the University of Sydney and the University of Western Australia, giving the Centre a truly national presence. The Vincent Fairfax Fellowship program will remain the flagship program of CEL and CEL staff will remain employed by the Melbourne Business School. While timing and the logistics were not fully concluded by yearend, the Centre s expanding activities are intended to provide a platform to become a recognised national and international Centre of Excellence in ethical leadership research and delivery of services to industry. Funding for the Vincent Fairfax senior lectureship at the Australian Defence Force Academy concluded at the end of Dr Stephen Coleman presented to the VFELF Board in November 2011 on the further development at ADFA of teaching and research on ethical decision making in a military context, including acceptance for publication of his book Military Ethics: An Introduction with Case Studies. It was published by Oxford University Press in July 2012 and is to be launched by the Chief of the Australian Defence Forces in Canberra on 26 November VFELF Directors will be attending. The work provides an accessible introduction to the ethical issues faced by today's junior and mid ranking military personnel and has apparently been very well received. Dr Anna Flouris completed the third Churchill Fellowship funded by VFELF, studying youth leadership projects in USA and Canada for implementation with Indigenous people in remote Australia. The fourth and final Churchill Fellowship was awarded for travel and research in 2011/12 to Ms Elisabeth Turner, Principal, Waggrakine Primary School, Geraldton. Elisabeth will visit Microsoft Worldwide 42

45 schools to investigate innovative leadership, ICT and global learning. Her study tour will cover the Republic of Korea, Singapore and Malaysia. I take this opportunity to thank my fellow directors for their committed and valued expertise. Similarly, the Foundation remains indebted to Sue Anne Wallace, Emily Fuller, Sue Goudie and Peter Roach for their excellent support during the year. I would like to pass on my best wishes to Sue Anne Wallace on her retirement and every success to Peter Roach in his future endeavours. R.N. Cartwright Chairman 43

46 ABOUT VFELF Mission The Foundation seeks to support the development of high standards of ethics in leadership so that outstanding young Australians can expand their capacity to make a significant impact for the good of the Australian community. The Foundation has twin objectives: To foster the leadership ability of Australians while they are still developing their vocation. They should already have demonstrated the potential and confidence to be able to influence and exercise leadership within Australia; To foster the desire and capability of Australians to make wise ethical decisions and to inspire others to follow their example. The Foundation should focus on Australian citizens who are committed to making a significant contribution to the Australian community through their leadership. On Leadership the work of the Foundation should: Be focused on young Australians who have a good idea of where they are going and merit selection for their leadership qualities; Strengthen their skills and capabilities of leadership; and Ensure practical and effective application of such leadership capabilities. On Ethics the work of the Foundation should: Provide a framework for developing, maintaining and integrating the ethical dimensions of leadership in their lives; Promote the highest possible ethical standards. To answer the question What ought we to do? in practical conscious ways having regard to all those affected by their decisions; Encourage leaders to take decisions and to relate to others in a way which they themselves would wish to be treated. 44
