Four new directors including a new Chair were formally appointed to the Board of the Buderim Foundation at the organisation’s Annual General Meeting this month.

TODAY the Buderim Foundation has celebrated 10 years of giving through its Community Grants Program. A total of $64,000 has been shared by 17 community organisations.
This brings the total amount of funds granted to the Buderim community through this program over the last ten years to $404,000, since 2008.
School expenses such as clothing, shoes and stationery supplies can be challenging for many families. So, the Buderim Foundation is proud to be a part of the 2017 FRRR Back to School Program that offers $50 Target vouchers to families who require some assistance.
Managed by The Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR), this program supports students and their families who attend schools in our local area. This year, with significant financial support from our local Buderim Lions and Rotary Clubs, the Buderim Foundation is able to distribute 250 Target vouchers valued at $50 each, a total worth of $12,500.
