Shaw and Partners is delighted to announce that the Shaw and Partners Foundation has surpassed a remarkable milestone by donating over $10 million to charity since its inception in 2015.

The Shaw and Partners Foundation pledged to raise and donate $10 million to charity by our 10-year anniversary in 2025. Today, we are extremely proud to announce that we have achieved this in less than nine years. To date, the Shaw and Partners Foundation has supported over 500 philanthropic projects and donated over $12 million to more than 250 Australian charities—a testament to the dedication of everyone involved.

In celebration of this achievement, we launched the Shaw and Partners Foundation Week initiative. During the week of 22-26 July, Shaw and Partners was proud to donate $500,000 to over 30 micro-charities across Australia. These funds were allocated to our six major offices—Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide, and Perth—where local staff and advisers nominated the beneficiaries.

Foundation Week was also a tribute to every member of Shaw and Partners who personally contributes to the Foundation through monthly donations, volunteering their time, or sharing their skills.

The Shaw and Partners Foundation was established in 2015 to provide a platform for our company’s greater participation in community service. Our efforts include extending financial support to our advisers and staff in their fundraising endeavours by matching their contributions dollar for dollar, promoting activity-based fundraising, and providing pro bono consulting services to charities. With a strong focus on mental health, education, and social inclusion, we are committed to making a meaningful impact. Our mission is to instil and perpetuate real change in the fabric of Australian society.

Shaw and Partners CEO Earl Evans commented on the final day of Foundation Week: “Thank you to everyone at Shaw and Partners for your generous contributions and support, without which it would not be possible to do what we have just done, not only in the last 5 days but the last 9 years. It is quite extraordinary, and all Shaw and Partners Management, Staff, and Advisers should be very proud. Your contributions have made a real difference, and together, we will continue to empower and uplift communities across Australia."
