Overview

The Bryan Foundation was established by Queensland-based Bob Bryan AM and Kay Bryan in 2009 to provide a means of giving back to the community and creating a perpetual family legacy. Bob is a businessman and philanthropist who has had a long and successful career in the mining, investments and property sectors.

The Foundation’s core focus is empowering young Queenslanders through education.

Specifically, the Foundation partners with organisations whose education and training programs creatively address the challenges faced by vulnerable young Queenslanders, with a particular focus on early childhood education.

The Foundation has also committed funds to immediately support three Queensland-based COVID-19 programs to help communities at risk, fund vaccine development research and clinical trials. 

"Access to a good education is fundamental to children having the opportunity to reach their full potential and to secure fulfilling and meaningful employment." -- Bob Bryan AM
