About Futurity Education Foundation

Futurity Education Foundation is the philanthropic arm of Futurity Investment Group, a Member-owned mutual with a longstanding commitment to education. We believe education has the power to transform lives and create a more equitable and prosperous society. Through the Foundation, we extend that commitment by investing in initiatives and partnerships that can create meaningful and lasting impact.

 

We are entering a new phase of our philanthropy, focused on forming innovative partnerships with organisations that share our ambition for change. By bringing together philanthropy, research and deep subject-matter expertise, we fund and support new approaches to complex education challenges, with a focus on building evidence, understanding what works and identifying solutions with the potential to scale.

 

Our partnership with Victoria University is an important first step in this new direction. Over time, we intend to grow our network of collaborative partners, supporting research, innovation and practical solutions that can strengthen the education system, inform policy and practice, and contribute to broader change. This supports Futurity Investment Group’s long-term ambition to become a large-scale change-maker and positively impact more than one million people by FY2036.

 

Our work also builds on Futurity Investment Group’s long history of celebrating and supporting educators through the National Excellence in Teaching Awards (NEiTA). For more than three decades, NEiTA has recognised teaching excellence, while the Foundation’s evolving partnerships create new opportunities to invest in research, innovation and evidence-led approaches that support educators and strengthen education more broadly.
