The Daylesford
Perpetual Gift
Supporting children and their families in the Hepburn Shire community through educational programs and early literacy intervention.
Overview
In 2007, Jim and Norma Foster established The Daylesford Perpetual Gift, a sub-fund of the State Trustees Australia Foundation. The Gift’s sole purpose is to support The Daylesford Foundation.
The Daylesford Foundation serves the Hepburn Shire community by supporting children and their families through various programs to achieve their education goals and thrive in our local regional community.
Programs are focused on early literacy intervention, supporting local schools and, scholarships and mentoring children who are transitioning from school to work or further study. The barriers facing regional kids and their families to get to university or colleges for further education are quite significant. The Daylesford Foundation provides support to those in our Hepburn shire who need a little help in that transition.
