About Us
Changemakers Australia is currently hosted by the Reichstein Foundation in Melbourne. E-mail and the materials on this website are the key ways we can communicate with people around the country and internationally.
Patrons
We have two patrons – Jill Reichstein and Sarah Stegley – who share our passion and commitment to social change philanthropy.
Supporters
Changemakers enjoys the support of a number of donors, including the Social Justice Fund, a sub-fund of the Australian Communities Foundation. Changemakers is fortunate to receive pro bono legal support from a number of legal experts and law firms. This help is essential for Changemakers to continue our vital work which benefits many different important causes.
 Social change is happening all the time – largely as individuals we are reactive with the changes being imposed upon us by larger social, political or economic forces. It is therefore vital that agencies and groups that work with poverty and inequality and abuse seek to be themselves a force for change. That is not to say that they abandon their important role in providing individual help but that they use the accumulated evidence from that work - experience that gives them legitimacy - to mount a case for change  Julian Gardner, launching Changemakers Australia 26th October 2005 |
