About the Foundation
Established in 2002 by the Bennelong Group, the Bennelong Foundation aims to enhance community wellbeing and provide opportunities for positive and lasting change in our community.

The activities of the Foundation are overseen by an independent Board made up of the following individuals:
- Jeff Chapman, Chairman
- Susan Frances, General Manager, Bennelong Foundation
- Chris Cunningham, Non-Executive Director
- Malcolm Gray, Non-Executive Director
- Peter Polson, Non-Executive Director
- Carena Shankar, Non-Executive Director
- Hon. Phil Honeywood, Adviser

The Foundation also has a Youth Committee who specifically considers smaller grants, with a particular focus on youth issues.
