Surf Life Saving Foundation (SLSF)
The Surf Life Saving Foundation was established to ensure Surf Life Saving’s financial sustainability and undertake fundraising activities on behalf of all SLSCs across Australia. They do this by engaging with the wider Australian community and initiating and managing fundraising programs to maximise funds available for the Surf Life Saving movement.
The SLSF is the fundraising arm of the SLSA, and among other things, oversees our lotteries and regular giving program (Guardians of the Surf). A share of funds from both these programs is directed back to SLSNSW and distributed to SLSNSW branches and SLSCs. SLS Members and SLSCs are eligible to buy lottery tickets sold by the SLSF. SLSCs can also sell these lottery tickets online to their SLSC members and supporters and receive a direct financial benefit (50% of ticket sales) to their SLSC in the process.
SLSNSW
The SLSNSW Partnerships Team strives to form long-term partnerships that align with SLS values and meet mutual objectives.
They are available for potential partners and SLSNSW SLSCs and branches to discuss organisational requirements and exciting opportunities available to support fundraising.
Contact the SLSNSW Partnerships team for more information.
SLSC Fundraising Committees
SLSC fundraising committees will drive and undertake several yearly fundraising activities. They play an essential role in raising funds for an SLSC, as membership fees alone do not cover SLSC operations.
