Local Community
Caring for a child can be tough and very challenging. While every child is a joy to their parents, families of children with a disability find simple everyday living more difficult. Financial assistance, respite care - time out and community support can make a world of difference.
The Westfield Community Program was launched in early 2008 to address these needs in our local communities. Each Westfield Centre across Australia partners with a local disability service provider to help improve the quality of life for children with disabilities and their families.
Westfield Garden City encourages you to support its local community partner Endeavour Foundation.
Endeavour Foundation
Get Inspired
Endeavour Foundation makes a difference to the lives of more than 3,400 people with a disability throughout Queensland and western Sydney.
We were established in 1951 by Mums and Dads of children with an intellectual disability. After the Queensland Education department said "these backward children cannot be educated" the Mum's set up their own school on a verandah in suburban Brisbane.
Today, we exist to provide opportunities to all people with a disability of all ages in order to increase their participation in every aspect of society and are the largest employer of people with a disability in Australia.
Take Action
Donate: You can donate in a variety of ways such as workplace giving, sponsoring a Latch-On student, host a clothing donation party or donating to the Endowment Challenge fund.
Volunteer: Without the dedication of more than 1,200 volunteers, Endeavour would not be able to make such a difference. To find out more about volunteering with Endeavour, call Volunteer and Community Engagement Manager Sarah Dreaver on 07 3908 7291.
