Our goal is for every South Australian to be as healthy as they can be. We fund projects that lay the foundations for improving the overall health of the people in this state.

Our foundation focuses on long-term funding partnerships with an emphasis on the three pillars of health – physical health, mental health and social wellbeing.

Within these pillars our priorities are prevention and cure and, importantly, building the capability of people and organisations to improve their own health outcomes.
