Pinnacle is passionate about enabling better lives through investment excellence. This belief is reflected through Pinnacle’s strong commitment – together with its affiliated fund managers – towards partnering with the Pinnacle Charitable Foundation (Foundation) to drive positive, long term social change. Through building the capacity of excellent Australian not for profit (NFP) organisations, the Foundation is helping to deliver tangible impact within communities across six key causes – identified as critically important by employees and stakeholders of Pinnacle and Affiliates.


Funding Approach
“
Each relationship is based on a long-term commitment, with all charitable partners carefully selected for their relevance to Pinnacle’s brand values, importance to our employees across Pinnacle and our Affiliates, and their strategic fit with the interests of particular fund managers. We are delighted that the Foundation continues to work so closely and successfully with our Affiliates, to build the capacity and increase the impact of these great not-for-profit organisations.
The determination, resilience and flexibility shown by our partners during the COVID-19 pandemic is extraordinary. Their willingness to see the ‘silver lining’ afforded by the virus’s impact, and the immense sense of commitment and responsibility that each partner feels towards those they support – who are increasingly vulnerable in these difficult times – is both humbling and inspiring”.
IAN MACOUN

“
The Foundation’s success is built around close engagement and collaboration across the wider Pinnacle Group, with Pinnacle Affiliates actively working with the Foundation to build longterm NFP partnerships. In addition, Affiliates provide investment management services to the Foundation on a pro bono basis. Pinnacle also offers extensive pro bono support, through a wide range of services”.
Mary Jung, Foundation CEO
History and Vision
Established by Pinnacle’s antecedent companies in 1987, including Wilson HTM, Wilson & Co and the Wilson family, the Foundation operates as an independent public ancillary fund (PuAF) registered with the ACNC (Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission) and with DGR Type 2 status.
The Foundation has a longstanding mission to foster long-term viability across the not-for-profit (NFP) sector and support the capacity of strategic partners to drive sustainable change in their communities. Together with Pinnacle and Affiliates, the Foundation is building on the 30 year legacy of its forerunners and working towards its vision of a more compassionate, creative and clever Australia.
Partnership Philosophy
In every partnership the Foundation’s aim is to facilitate the delivery of solutions which can be analysed and assessed, strengthened and scaled.
As an early stage backer which frequently offers seed funding to encourage trials and incubate new projects, the Foundation has often been able to invest in the future of young, passionate NFP entities as they seek to have a growing impact within their communities. Many partners have leveraged this initial support, securing further funding from private and public donors to successfully build their long term capacity to drive change.
Partner Support and Selection
In all cases the Foundation provides annual funding of between $20,000 and $100,000 for specific projects and programs, which are approved via a formal application and assessment process. The goal is to build multi year engagements which foster strong and close relationships, and support the ability of selected NFP partners to address often complex social issues.
Affiliates collaborate with the Foundation to donate directly to partners which align with the interests of Affiliates’ employees, clients, investors and business strategies. During the 2021 financial year donations totalling $541,000 were made by the Foundation, increased by a further $230,000 from Affiliates. These funds will primarily support the ongoing efforts of 13 charity partners in FY22, working across Australia to address six broadly defined causes.
Pinnacle’s Backing
With the financial backing of Pinnacle and access to extensive pro bono services across investment management, portfolio reporting, finance, marketing and IT, the Foundation operates with low overheads and high impact. The Foundation Board is particularly grateful to Ian Macoun for his personal pro bono commitment to skillfully managing the Foundation’s investment portfolio, which is governed by a formal investment strategy. This strategy aims to provide reasonable capital protection in volatile markets whilst seeking to drive growth over the longer term. Investments are held in a range of suitable products offered across Affiliates, which include funds offering franking credits, monthly income streams, global exposure and a range of non-equity exposed assets. As part of their broad commitment to the Foundation, all Affiliates donate the equivalent of management fee rebates back to the Foundation through cash or additional units in investments.
This access to expertise, insight and market knowledge creates excellent opportunities for the Foundation to enable professional, well governed organisations to deliver impact – through partnerships which allow them the flexibility to focus on their core business.
Shareholder and Investor Engagement
Pinnacle and Affiliate stakeholders are also invited to contribute directly to the Foundation, with 100% of all public donations directed to charity partners. As the Foundation is endorsed by the ATO as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) covered by Item 2 of the table in section 30-15 of the Income tax Assessment Act 1997, eligible donations made to the Foundation over $2.00 are tax deductible. Details of Directors, governing documents and Annual Information Statements can be accessed via the ACNC register.
Core Focus Areas
Currently the Foundation’s designated areas of focus are the following:
- Promotion of strong mental health awareness, together with support for prevention and early intervention strategies aimed at reducing mental illness and driving down suicide rates;
- Support for children from a range of environments who face acute and / or systemic disadvantage;
- Legal assistance and advocacy for victims of sexual abuse and domestic violence;
- Capacity building for world-leading medical researchers seeking treatments and cures for children’s genetic diseases and for dementia sufferers;
- Resources to teach and deliver kindness, community care and resilience in a COVID-19 world; and
- Commitment to the environment, through a specific focus on supporting a more informed and diversified approach to water management and regulatory frameworks.
Current Partnerships
The Foundation, together with Pinnacle and/ or Affiliates, will be supporting the following projects during FY22:
R U OK?: aligned with Pinnacle's commitment to help improve mental health and reduce suicide rates
The Foundation joined forces with the suicide prevention charity R U OK? to develop the nationwide ‘Are They Triple OK?’ Campaign (ATTOK?), launched in November 2019. The campaign’s free resource materials, originally developed in response to a Beyond Blue nationwide “Answering the Call” study into the mental health and wellbeing of Australia’s police and emergency services workers, became highly regarded and widely distributed during and following Australia’s horrific 2019 / 2020 bushfire season.
In FY22 ATTOK? will continue to prompt conversations and encourage early intervention by providing the family and friends of emergency services personnel with practical tools & tips on how to begin an R U OK? conversation. This next phase is built around four key pillars of Awareness, Education, Engagement and Action, to help ensure effectiveness of the campaign year-round.
This approach will include access to resources including; a new Conversation Guide tailored to Family and Friends (social support), free e-learning modules, social media assets and stories from emergency services personnel highlighting the impact of an R U OK? conversation and the importance of asking ‘are you OK?’.
It will be further supported by a peer support “champions” model; recruiting and providing an ‘Are They Triple OK?’ Champions Guide to enable internal champions to drive positive change within their immediate working environment. Further support will also be provided to head office teams to enable and equip them to build an R U OK? Culture.
In FY22, the Foundation has also provided additional funding to further R U OK? capacity building through local organisations, suicide prevention networks and infrastructure in regional and rural areas. This is critical as the rate of suicide in rural Australia is growing more rapidly than that of cities, particularly as rural residents face unique stresses due to droughts, floods, and bushfires.
“
As a former frontline emergency service worker, I’m so grateful that a campaign like Are They Triple OK? exists. I really believe that it will continue to have a lasting impact on the emergency services sector, and provide colleagues, friends and family with the confidence to have life changing (and potentially lifesaving) conversations. I’ve loved watching this campaign grow and shape into the resource that it is today. I’ve also enjoyed watching the emergency services sector organically embracing mental health conversations and the ATTOK? Materials.”

Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal: aligned with Pinnacle's commitment to building sustainable and resilient communities for mental and environmental health
The Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) are the only national foundation specifically focused on ensuring social and economic strength in remote, rural and regional Australia. They do this by connecting good will, with good purpose and aligning government, philanthropic and local community purpose and investment.
The partnership with FRRR and Pinnacle Charitable Foundation is being implemented across three core programs to help rebuild and strengthen regional communities including:-
- Future Drought Fund – support community organisations to develop locally generated initiatives that build strong social connectedness, strengthen social capital and support transformative activities to be more prepared for, and resilient, to the impacts of drought
- Disaster Resilient: Future Ready program – support and strengthen the capacity and capability of remote, rural and regional communities to thrive and be resilient to the impacts of climate, natural disasters and other disruptions.
- Strengthening Rural Communities – provides small, localised grants to grassroot, community led initiatives that directly and clearly benefit local communities including recovery from national disasters such as Australia’s Black Summer bushfires
All three of the programs align closely to the Foundation and Pinnacle’s interest in helping to drive effective social and environmental change, to secure and maintain the overall health and wellbeing of communities. This helps ensure that they can not only survive, but thrive in changing and challenging circumstances.
“
With the cumulative impacts of drought, fires, floods and COVID-19, raising funds locally is extremely challenging in smaller communities, so access to grants is more important than ever.”
FRRR CEO Natalie Egleton
Full Stop Australia: aligned to a key need identified by representatives from the superannuation funds industry
Domestic violence and sexual assault are by any measure the most common – and one of the most insidious – crimes committed in Australia. Enormous personal, social and productivity costs are associated in every instance. Frequently referred to in the media as the “shadow pandemic”, the pressures and stresses over the past 2 years have greatly exacerbated the environments in which abuse can occur and remain hidden from view.
For more than five years the Foundation has partnered with the NSW based Full Stop Australia (FSA), the fundraising arm of Rape and Domestic Violence Services Australia (R&DVSA).
Full Stop Australia is dedicated to putting a stop to sexual, domestic and family violence through support, education and advocacy. Funding continues to help FSA employ a Legal and Policy Officer to assist clients in accessing, understanding and navigating a multitude of complex court and legal processes. Equally important has been the enhanced ability of FSA to review and participate in legal reform discussions, leading to powerful submissions contributing to law reform across state and federal jurisdictions – including the recent historic reform of NSW sexual consent laws announced by the state government in May 2021. Critically, this has also allowed “the voice of the victim to be brought to the table” – often for the first time in a meaningful way.
The role also provides internal training, and the capacity for FSA to transcribe widely sought-after training modules into accessible online programs to ensure their continued public access and availability.
Additional one-off funding from the Foundation in FY22 will also support the establishment of a national survivor advocate program for people with lived experience of sexual, domestic and family violence from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds. Its goals will be to drive meaningful changes to policy, practice and law reform in a safe and supported way.
ReachOut Australia: aligned with Pinnacle and Antipodes
Numerous reports and studies indicate that prevention and early intervention strategies to address mental health concerns in young people, are critically important in preventing these escalating and becoming crippling. Following Antipodes’ establishment of a link with ReachOut through contributing as a fund manager to Future Generation Global Investment Company (FGG), the Foundation is proudly supporting ReachOut together with Antipodes for the fifth year.
ReachOut is Australia’s most accessed youth mental health service and is trusted by young people to help them get through tough times. More than 3.6 million Australians turned to ReachOut for support in 2020, and the organisation continues to lead the way in developing modern, innovative mental health and wellbeing programs that deliver the support young people need.
One of the priorities for ReachOut in FY22 is a shift in strategy to better integrate into the everyday existence of young people, and how they operate and chat online. In pivoting from being a resource website that leads with information – to becoming an intuitive, integrated and personalised digital service that connects people to the conversations and communities they need – ReachOut will remain relevant and ready to support young people, and their families.
Funding will focus around creating a digital ecosystem that connects young people to the conversations and communities they need, including a pilot model of 1 to 1 peer support that connects young people to other young people with lived experience. This model is a first for Australia and ReachOut research shows that young people are looking for options to connect safely with other young people who have ‘walked in their shoes’ when they aren’t yet ready, able or willing to talk to mental health professionals or crisis services.
batyr Australia: aligned with Palisade Investment Partners
batyr, meaning hero, is named after the famous talking elephant in Kazakhstan, and “exists to give a voice to the elephant in the room – mental health”. batyr believes that every young person in Australia should feel equipped and empowered to take charge of their mental health and wellbeing. By training a generation of young people with the tools, education and support systems to navigate challenging times, they can thrive and grow into independent, confident and happy adults.
Employees across Palisade have a strong belief in addressing issues around youth mental health – especially in regional locations – and in fostering education as a pathway to future wellbeing. batyr is therefore an ideal partner as the organisation draws on young facilitators with “lived experience” of mental health challenges to deliver peer to peer messages in schools and universities around resilience, hope and action within communities. Programs aim to engage, educate and empower participants.
The Foundation and Palisade are together supporting batyr for a fifth year to continue building networks and delivering batyr@school programs in the Central West region of NSW. batyr’s presence, reach and impact across the region has been steadily increasing, with these experiences and learnings now being adapted to other communities in regional NSW struggling with the effects of drought, bushfires and coronavirus.
In addition, the partnership will also fund a pilot project in FY22 based around formal Advocacy training. This will help those who engage with batyr’s programs to continue to develop an insight into the organisation’s values and philosophy, through self paced online modules.
“
As an 18-year-old, being surrounded by such incredibly strong individuals was so empowering and made me feel less alone. I would recommend this to anyone who has a lived experience of mental ill-health. This has totally changed my perspective on my own mental health story and its power to make a difference.”

Having people be brave enough to share their stories can help people find the confidence to seek help”.

Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI): aligned with Plato Investment Management and Resolution Capital
Based at Westmead in Sydney, CMRI undertakes world-leading research to improve children’s health. As Australia’s first medical research facility dedicated to children, CMRI has been helping to save the lives of children for over 60 years. The award winning, independent Institute has built an international reputation for high impact research dedicated to tackling the leading causes of death in children: cancer, congenital disorders (birth defects), and genetic diseases.
Following input from employees across Plato and Resolution Capital, the Foundation has for a fifth year joined with both fund managers to partner with CMRI to support the purchase of an Amersham Typhoon IP scanner, an analytical instrument which will be used by several Cancer Research labs that study Telomere Biology. “Telomeres” are the ends of human chromosomes and are directly involved in cellular ageing and cancer.
CMRI has the highest concentration of Telomere researchers in Australia, encompassing the Cancer Research Unit, Cell Biology Unit, Telomere Length Regulation Unit and Genome Integrity Unit. The Typhoon IP scanner will achieve accurate and sensitive detection of human telomeres (and other DNA), enabling CMRI’s research on the mechanisms of cancer progression and the development of potential cancer treatments.
Like the previous projects – which also enabled CMRI to purchase cutting edge equipment – the aim is to enhance researchers’ understanding of inherited and acquired paediatric disorders, and gain insight into the development of new treatment options.
Yalari Limited: aligned with Resolution Capital
Resolution Capital is partnering with several organisations addressing different aspects of disadvantage experienced by young people across Australia.
One of these entities is Yalari, which since 2005 when it was founded, has shown an unwavering commitment to provide quality educational opportunities for Indigenous children from remote, rural and regional areas of Australia and the Torres Strait Islands. Scholarships commencing in Year 7 are currently offered across more than 20 partner boarding schools across Australia, with Yalari providing holistic support and guidance through to Year 12 and beyond.
For the past 3 years, Resolution Capital and the Foundation have supported Yalari’s annual Orientation Camp in January, which is the starting point for all new Year 7 students embarking on their boarding school journey. The Camp paves the way for a smooth transition from primary education and living at home to a secondary education at a boarding school. Year 7 students are given the opportunity to learn about boarding school life in an environment where they feel safe, can be inquisitive and share the journey with fellow students.
In addition, Resolution Capital is sponsoring a student from Moree on her boarding school journey in Sydney at Kambala’s Rose Bay, starting in 2021 when she was in Year 7, as a recipient of the Rosemary Bishop Scholarship Program.
The Mirabel Foundation: aligned with Firetrail Investments and also with Resolution Capital
Mirabel believes that every child deserves a childhood filled with love, hope and belonging. A highly respected children’s charity operating for more than 20 years, Mirabel has a mission to break the destructive cycle of drug addiction. This is achieved through the delivery of proven programs for children who have been orphaned or abandoned due to their parents’ illicit drug use, strengthened by crisis support and parenting assistance for the kinship carers who take on the responsibility of raising them.
With the support of the Foundation, Firetrail and other funders, Mirabel commenced a new Intensive Youth Support Program in the Hunter Valley region in NSW in 2021, and with demonstrated flexibility and adaptability through the pandemic, support will continue through 2022. The program incorporates both preventative actions aimed at working one on one with families experiencing a crisis regarding a child’s behaviour, and group activities which bring children and young teens together on a regular basis, to connect with each other based on shared experience. Support also includes the ongoing weekly homework tutoring supported by Firetrail, which continues to be rewarding for both students and the Firetrail team.
In FY22 Resolution Capital also began a new partnership with Mirabel to support their memorable “Big Day Out” events for children and families. However with extended lockdown restrictions in 2021 and the postponement of the days, the funding shifted to a financial fund for families in need as well as “Big Days In”, which included purchasing brand new pushbikes for 40 young people in extended lockdown, to maintain both physical and mental health.
All Mirabel programs aim to provide young people with intensive youth support and the opportunity to practise a variety of life skills including conflict resolution, personal safety awareness, positive communication and developing a sense of responsibility for themselves and others.
Australian Alzheimer's Research Foundation: aligned with Spheria Asset Management and also with Resolution Capital
Renewed funding in FY22 continues to underpin the Foundation and Spheria’s partnership with the Perth based Australian Alzheimer’s Research Foundation (AARF). Funding is helping researchers study the very early onset of Alzheimer’s disease, which is debilitating, strikes at random, and is incurable. Currently there is no effective treatment for Alzheimer’s, and with 1,800 Australians diagnosed with dementia every week, the disease remains the second leading cause of death in Australia.
Analysis into early stage cell changes at the onset of Alzheimer’s – to better understand its origins – has been identified as essential to both develop the most effective treatment of the disease, and in the search for a cure. Results of the studies being funded will contribute new knowledge about the underlying causes of the disease, how it develops and its progression.
In addition, a new program partnership with Resolution Capital will begin in January 2022. Together with the Foundation, the joint contribution will be applied to researching blood biomarkers and the development of a non-invasive, simple, early-stage diagnostic blood test to show “markers” for Alzheimer’s, and assist in early identification and potential early treatment for the disease.
The AARF has a vision of a world in which Alzheimer’s no longer exists, and a mission to support leading edge research that makes it both treatable and preventable.
The Kindness Factory: aligned with the need to teach and deliver kindness, community care and resilience in a COVID-19 impacted world
Expanding on a new relationship developed in FY21 with the Kindness Factory, the Foundation will be providing capacity building support for admin, marketing and strategy development. The Foundation is championing the mission of The Kindness Factory to “inspire all humans to play kind, have fun, stay connected with others, know when to reach out for help, exercise resilience and treat themselves, and the planet, with dignity and respect”.
Kindness Factory is founded on the principles of kindness, providing awareness and education on the emotional and psychological benefits of kindness. Human decency in society requires an intergenerational shift in positive behaviors. Hence, in 2022 Kindness Factory will be building further on 2020’s launch of the Kindness Curriculum and enhancing the program reach beyond the already existing 2500 schools across Australia; capturing students from preschool through to senior year, as well as Health Professionals and staff.
In addition, new initiatives are being planned to acknowledge key milestone events and engage more people into the “kindness movement”, including increasing awareness of World Kindness Day on 13 November each year. For the day in 2021, with additional funding support from the Foundation, the Kindness Factory developed the #KindnessResponse campaign, inspiring 66,000 acts of kindness to be logged, including 122 acts from Pinnacle employees. The Kindness Factory is also developing a world first Kindness Symposium to be held in Australia and the USA in 2022, when the environment allows.
“
Kindness is the act of making someone feel they are heard, seen and valued”.

YWCA: aligned with Pinnacle employees
Support for emergency shelter for older women facing a crisis in homelessness – a situation exacerbated by Coronavirus – is being offered to the YWCA in Sydney for their frontline “Pathways to Independence” (PTI) program. This has a specific focus on single, older women over 50 who are often facing homelessness – and the complex issues surrounding it – for the first time, and who are increasingly facing a system with a shocking lack of affordable housing.
According to the YWCA, only 10 per cent of homeless services specifically cater to women in the 50+ age group. Across Sydney, the PTI outreach, rehousing services, holistic case management and skills workshops offer older women support to build strategies and resilience and to feel safe and secure. The program contributes to positive life outcomes, and prevents older women from becoming entrenched in the vicious cycle of homelessness.
The Foundation’s donation will directly enable Pathways to Independence to remain operating in 2021, due to a gap in funding caused by lockdowns. In FY22 the Foundation is also able to provide additional support for over and above client brokerage needs, including immediate (crisis accommodation, bedding, white goods and groceries) and long term value-added (vocational training, work experience placements and financial education) brokerage needs.
“
The YWCA’s historical and ongoing commitment to ensuring / providing safe, affordable accommodation for marginalised and vulnerable women has been a priority since our earliest days……right back to when we provided the first Home for women immigrating to Australia in 1881″.
NASCA (National Aboriginal Sporting Chance Academy): aligned with Firetrail Investments
Support for positive educational outcomes for Indigenous youth will be expanded beyond the existing long term partnership with Yalari, through a new partnership with NASCA (National Aboriginal Sporting Chance Academy). NASCA is 100% led and governed by skilled Indigenous professionals and educators, working in collaboration with schools and communities for lasting engagement.
Together with Firetrail, the Foundation is committed to helping NASCA to draw on the power of structured educational, sporting and cultural programs to harness the educational, employment and health aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people.
Support is being directed towards a new NASCA initiative, a residential “CareerFit Camp”. NASCA CareerFit will bring together Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders students enrolled in year 10-12 to Sydney for 3 days of challenging and engaging learning experiences, balanced with fun, with the aim of helping to empower these young students to map their own careers and futures.
Lighthouse Foundation: aligned with Spheria Asset Management
As a further way of supporting acutely disadvantaged young people, the Foundation and Spheria have established a new, Victorian based partnership with the Lighthouse Foundation. Lighthouse helps young, vulnerable people in Victoria who are homeless, and who typically come from backgrounds of long-term neglect and abuse. More than 1,000 kids have secured the assistance they require to achieve a lifelong sense of belonging, the opportunity to heal and the capacity to thrive.
Within a safe home and a community to belong to, these young people are nurtured by the Lighthouse Model of Care – a holistic therapeutic treatment program drawing on over 60 years of empirical research into human development.
Funding will be directed towards two key areas:-
- the Outreach/On For Life program, that supports kids through their first year of independence with a series of formal Individual Development Plan meetings; and
- the reopening of the Youth Resource Centre Hub in 2022, a central hub of operations that provides a drop-in and critically important connection centre for the formerly homeless young people, based in a converted warehouse adjacent to the East Richmond train station
“
At Lighthouse I found a real home. I had my own room, my own things and people who cared about me. Every morning I knew that my Carer and I could have breakfast together and after a while I actually wanted to come home for family dinners. The best part is that I knew I wasn’t leaving any time soon. I could start thinking about my future. I made good friends in the Lighthouse community and my Carers helped me to start making positive choices”.

Peter Cullen Water and Environment Trust: aligned with Riparian Capital Partners
The Foundation Board has added a broad new partnership focus around the environment, reflecting the increasing engagement of philanthropy in seeking innovative ways to help manage resources and address climate challenges. Together with Riparian, a partnership has been initiated with the Peter Cullen Water and Environment Trust in the ACT, directly supporting their Women in Water (WiW) Program.
The Trust’s goal is to bridge the gap between people, science, and the environment, including helping to create an effective and informed regulatory framework for water management. Partnering with the Women in Water Program aims to help the Trust achieve this, through fostering the diversity of leadership, thought, experience, and background amongst those who influence water discussions and frameworks across Australia.
“
Through developing leaders in the water sector and raising the level of discourse – by facilitating, convening and enabling – the Peter Cullen Trust empowers others to be effective communicators and advocates”.

Donate
Funds of circa $540,000 were made available through the Foundation during FY21, supported by a further $230,000 in combined donations from Antipodes, Palisade, Plato, Res Cap, Firetrail and Spheria. These contributions of over $770,000 were supplemented (where possible) by access to facilities, advice, networks, volunteers, and events, championing the ongoing efforts of frontline charity partners working throughout Australia.
This support has been incredibly important in making a tangible difference – enabling our partners to provide workshops, forums, online help, counselling, education, tutoring, gift packs, publications, legal advice, technology support and emergency relief, plus undertake new research, pilot projects, explore online programs, and bring a general sense of purpose and positivity to their operations.
Anyone wishing to support the Pinnacle Charitable Foundation as it continues to facilitate the ongoing commitment of these inspiring organisations, is invited to make a tax deductible donation now:
