Sir David Martin Foundation Merchandise

CEO Diary January
Whilst enjoying the holiday we are given to celebrate Australia Day I reflected on how grateful I am to have the good fortune to be born in this country. I reflected on how wonderful our Sir David Martin Foundation loyal donors are and how they epitomise the Australian spirit of helping others in need and being True Blue! by giving generously when asked to support the children and young adults less fortunate in our community. By giving them a second chance to become healthy and happily adjusted and contributing to society, they are allowing them, after receiving care and support through the programs we fund, to also become fine Australians on their journey of discovery.
Just yesterday we received a wonderful bequest from one of our faithful band of supporters who recently passed away. After thoughtfully looking after her family and friends, the residual of her estate was left between three charities. Thankfully Sir David Martin Foundation was one. Our gracious donor will never know how many lives her thoughtful generosity will help. Maybe even save.
So on this Australia Day I give thanks for all your support and the generosity of our dear departed friend of the Foundation and hope that in all our heart of hearts we all give consideration to become a bequestor of the Sir David Foundation, touching the lives of children we will never know.
