BEACON'S MISSION STATEMENT

The Beacon Foundation is a National not-for-profit organisation, that seeks to influence the attitudes and culture of Australians so that each young person develops an independent will to achieve personal success for themselves and their community.

A key strategy of Beacon is to initiate original and innovative projects that demonstrate solutions to youth unemployment and encourage self-help at the local level.

The implementation of these innovative projects relies on the support of local communities and the business community at a local and national level. Businesses providing support to Beacon in terms of funding, services in kind and time fall into two categories

Beacon National Sponsors and Beacon Business Supporters.

Today successful Beacon programs are being replicated around Australia.

Three successful Beacon programs now being implemented in mainland states and territories are No Dole and Real Jobs and Polish.
