We build community  

We have been in the Australian community for over 100 years and are investing in the future sustainability of the region by providing employment, education and business opportunities.  

We are committed to enriching the lives of those in the communities in which we work and live. Strong communities are where we draw our resources from for a successful, responsible, and sustainable business, so we have implemented a diverse range of initiatives and partnerships to provide mutually beneficial outcomes to our people and communities. 

We have long-standing partnerships with a wide range of community partners who are selected based on their alignment to our five-pillar Corporate Social Responsibility program. The five pillars are: Sustainability, Indigenous Engagement, Diversity, Healthy Communities, and Children & Youth.

Clontarf Foundation partners

We have been working with Clontarf Foundation since 2014 to support the education, discipline, life skills, self-esteem, and employment prospects of young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men around Australia. 

The Clontarf Foundation operates 123 academies across Australia, supporting more than 9,000 participants and employing over 475 dedicated staff members. Using the existing passion these young men have for sport allows Clontarf to attract them to school and keep them coming.

Starlight Children’s Foundation partners

We have partnered with Starlight Children’s Foundation since 2017 to support its Healthier Futures Initiative (HFI). 

The HFI aims to improve the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children living in remote communities by engaging with kids through song, dance and storytelling to encourage healthy living practices and boost health clinic attendance and community confidence in the healthcare system. 

MATES in Construction partners  

We are a proud state industry partner of MATES in Construction. The partnership began in 2020 to ensure Clough is part of the change that’s needed in the construction industry’s approach to mental health and suicide prevention. 

MATES provides mental health and suicide prevention education and training nationally, through development programs on sites, and by supporting workers in need through case management and a 24/7 help line. 

Stars Foundation partners 

We have been a proud partner of Stars Foundation since 2021. Stars delivers programs tailored to meet the needs of young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women to promote positive education, employment, and life outcomes.   

Stars offer many personal development activities and experiences including academic support, personal health and wellbeing, music, drama and dance, art, cooking and nutrition, and exercise and sport, as well as community activities to build their life-skills and further develop their links to culture.
