Good Things Foundation Australia
Good Things Foundation Australia is a for-purpose organisation that aims to support the more than 2.5 million digitally excluded Australians. Whether limited by availability or ability, these individuals miss out on critical opportunities. Good Things Foundation bridges this gap through targeted digital inclusion initiatives and resources. In 2017, we received funding from the Australian Government to establish and support the Be Connected Network. Since then, we've built a national network of over 3,000 community organisations dedicated to helping older Australians thrive in a digital world. We use our expertise to build and facilitate a dynamic network by providing resources, educational tools, funding and collaboration opportunities. Good Things Foundation Australia is a subsidiary of Good Things Foundation (UK).
