The Jibb Foundation is proud to support the Girls & Boys Brigade which has a longstanding connection and history with the Fairfax family. The aim of the Girls & Boys Brigade is to provide care and support to children and youth in need by providing recreation, education and activities that build life skills as a foundation for a brighter future. 

Based on Riley Street, Surry Hills, the organisation provides a safe and trusting place for children and youth in the Surry Hills and Redfern areas to socialise and build resilience, practical life skills and healthy relationships through recreation activities, educational help and individual support. Multi-year funding from the Jibb Foundation has supported the Family Support Service, the Children’s Vacation Care Program and a portion of the organisation’s core costs.
