Community


Throughout our company’s history we’ve forged strong bonds with the community by providing sponsorship and support to many local schools, sporting clubs and other groups. We’ve lent a hand to help countless fundraising initiatives by donating advertising boards in key locations, providing hands on assistance, conducting charity auctions and supplying valuable sponsorship dollars.

In addition to the many local groups that we’re proud to support, Jellis Craig also undertakes partnership and sponsorship to a range of major charities, whose work provides far-reaching benefits to the community:

The National Breast Cancer Foundation

Jellis Craig has been supporting the work of The National Breast Cancer Foundation for several years. A Silver Partner in our support of the Foundation, we present and promote the “Pink Ribbon Cup” – a premier race day held at Caulfield Racecourse in April each year. The Cup raises money for further research as well as increases awareness amongst women of the need for regular checkups.

Jellis Craig supports the Ilhan Food Allergy Foundation by providing sponsorship dollars and through fundraising events such as Caulfield’s “Thousand Guineas Day” during the Spring Racing Carnival and the Rainbow Ball held at Crown in November. All money raised goes towards helping improve the lives of people who suffer from anaphylaxis and food allergies.

Jellis Craig and the Environment

Yarra EnvironmentOne of the key challenges of our time is reducing our impact on the planet. At Jellis Craig we’ve taken this challenge on and have embarked on a long term plan to continually improve our environmental sustainability. The initiatives we’ve engaged in – across the breadth of our business – contribute to smarter use of resources and a raised consciousness of what we can do to live and work ‘green’.

Carbon footprint analysts – Carbon Planet - have conducted an audit for Jellis Craig and are assisting us to identify ways we can continuously improve on our resource usage. Year on year we’ll keep identifying new ways we can further reduce our environmental impact, challenging our business to remain at the forefront of climate-focussed corporate citizenship.
