On Friday 18^th October, four advisers from the Shaw and Partners Sydney office – Amanda Graham, John Wardman, Tony Doyle and Roger Gamble – abseiled down the 1 Market Street building in the Sydney CBD to raise money for Abseil for Youth.

Abseil for Youth is Sir David Martin Foundation’s annual fundraiser.  Each year hundreds of brave people face their fears to abseil down a 33 floor/135 metre skyscraper to help raise much needed funds for Triple Care Farm, a unique, holistic treatment centre that helps young people with substance addiction, mental illness, homelessness and unemployment.

This year the Shaw and Partners Team raised over $8,000 which was generously matched dollar-for-dollar by the Shaw and Partners Foundation, bringing the total donation to $16,208.

The Shaw and Partners Foundation adopts a long term view to corporate philanthropy by broadening the horizons of those less fortunate in our community. Since its inception in 2015, the Foundation has raised and donated over $2.5 million to charity.
