CFS Foundation
We’ve partnered with the CFS Foundation to provide much-needed assistance to CFS members who have been physically, mentally or financially injured as a result of fighting fires.
The CFS Foundation provides care and financial assistance to volunteer firefighters and their families who suffer distress caused in the line of duty.
“We’re extremely grateful for what we’ve received from the CFS Foundation. It will go towards replacing our fencing and hay sheds, and will contribute to that significantly.”

Tjindu Foundation
We’ve partnered with the Tjindu Foundation to help impart practical life skills and confidence on our state’s future leaders through education and football programs.
The Tjindu foundation is a not-for-profit that drives positive outcomes for Aboriginal children and young people in South Australia. They achieve this through education, cultural engagement programs and an Aboriginal AFL Academy.
“What we want our young people to know is that anything is possible. They get to write their own stories. We want them to think about is the what-if’s – and provide them with experiences and opportunities they wouldn’t get to experience otherwise.” – Tjindu Foundation General Manager Kellie Graves.
How the AFL academy works
Leveraging the appeal of sport, specifically AFL, Tjindu facilitate a specialised cultural and curriculum- based program that carters to the interests and learning needs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in years 10-12.
The program invites a squad of 80 students into the Academy, where they attend a once-per-week education, cultural and football/ fitness training day.
Students are mentored and complete a Certificate II or III in Sport Coaching or undertake Aboriginal Studies.
