Invest with leading Australian Fund Managers, while supporting our community foundation scholarships

The Community Foundation is an initiative of the Australian Olympic Committee designed to channel high-performing investment into projects that create real-world impact — for athletes, communities, and future generations.

Why invest?

Unleash untapped talent

Your investment bridges the gap between raw talent and elite performance, enabling athletes to access the resources they need to succeed.

Drive social impact

Sport is a powerful vehicle for change. Your investment funds our scholarships which fosters pride, resilience, and leadership within disadvantaged Australian communities.

Champion equity in sport

Systemic barriers limit many Australian athletes in succeeding in high-performance sport. Your support helps dismantle these barriers and creates a more inclusive and representative sporting landscape.

Build a legacy

Your contribution will have lasting impact—empowering future generations of athletes to dream bigger and achieve more.
