IOOF supporting the community<br />
Established as a not for profit organisation<br />
in June 2002, at the time of IOOF’s<br />
demutualisation, the IOOF Foundation<br />
recognises the historical origins of IOOF<br />
and the important role it has played in<br />
the Australian community since 1846.<br />

charity vehicle for the IOOF Group very<br />
seriously and is dedicated to making an<br />
ongoing commitment to the community<br />
in which we live. The Foundation achieves<br />
this by allocation of time and effort to<br />

IOOF Holdings to fund its activities, the<br />
Foundation has now gifted over $7m to<br />
