EUROZ CHARITABLE FOUNDATION NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2019 Euroz is proudly Western Australian focused and we believe that we have an obligation to give back to Western Australian charities in need. In 2006, the Euroz Charitable Foundation (the Foundation ) was formed in a Private Ancillary Fund structure which would allow Euroz to make distributions to worthy charities and contribute to our broader community. The businesses within Euroz and many of our staff members have made consistent donations to the Foundation. The funds of the Foundation continue to contribute and make a difference to Western Australian charities. During the past 13 years, the Foundation has donated over $1.6 million to a broad range of charities. In addition to financial support, employees of the Euroz Group are encouraged to volunteer their time to charities in our communities. YAY OR NAY? > COMMISSION FOR A CAUSE Commission For A Cause is a new charitiable event Euroz initiated in February 2019 whereby 100% of all brokerage generated on a day by Euroz Securities is then donated to charity. At its inaugural event in February, Euroz raised $195,881. This was a fantastic outcome which resulted in three equal donations of over $65,000 being made to each of the following charities: Homeless Healthcare will utilise the funds donated towards providing mobile primary health care to homeless people on the streets of Perth. The donation will also assist with the establishment of a new clinic in Fremantle. Teach For Australia have been providing special skills to their highly motivated and talented teaching associates since 2015. They have now placed 124 associates in Western Australia across metropolitan, regional and rural regions. Funds donated were used to specifically place talented teachers into communities that need them most. Perth Children's Hospital Foundation will put the funds raised towards the establishment of a Centre of Excellence for Childhood Burns at Perth Children’s Hospital (PCH). This is a unique opportunity to improve the long-term health and well-being of Western Australian children living with the physical and hidden scars of childhood burns.
