Program helping to make a difference to Australian communities
The AFA and SMSFA can now nominate local community causes to receive grants as part of the expansion of the Future2 Foundation (Future2) program.
Grants for the Make the Difference program, are expected to open in August, members of the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) and SMSF Association (SMSFA) now have the opportunity to participate in fundraising that impacts locally on a national basis.
Future2 is also broadening its focus to include all Australians in need rather than just younger Australians, allowing it to make an even bigger difference in the lives of Australians experiencing social, financial or physical hardship.
“We have been working with FPA members since 2007 to identify and support grassroots, community programs around Australia, helping those experiencing hardship,” said Julie Berry CFP, chair of Future 2.
“We will now be working with even more financial services professionals, including members of SMSF Association and the AFA.
“We will also continue our partnership with the FPA through the new association, the Financial Advice Association Australia, once the merger of the FPA and AFA has completed.
“We are looking forward to future growth for our foundation – with greater reach comes greater impact.
So far, we have supported over 150 local community programs and distributed $1.6 million to these causes.”
