In the heart of Mackay, Endeavour Foundation tirelessly champions the belief that everybody possesses the ability to achieve their dreams and contribute to their community.
Their commitment to building a brighter future for all reflects their unwavering passion for enhancing lives, day by day. They recognise the unique needs of each individual and tailor their support accordingly. Whether it's achieving independent living, finding a fulfilling job, or actively engaging with the community, Endeavour Foundation is dedicated to walking alongside you every step of the way and helping you find the services that are right for you under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
Endeavour Foundation knows that community inclusion is key for people to live their best life, so they've focused on developing homes that are centrally located, close to shops, transport, and services. Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a big step, especially for those leaving the family home for the first time. Endeavour Foundation's caring and committed team makes the change easier by creating a comfortable, familiar atmosphere for you to live in your own place, shared with housemates.
As part of the My Home, My Life initiative, Endeavour Foundation recently constructed a new fully accessible home in Beaconsfield to provide an independent living solution for locals living with disability.
This modern and contemporary home includes safety features such as help buttons in each bedroom, bathroom, and living space; extra-wide corridors and doorways to accommodate wheelchairs; and smart home ducted air-conditioning systems with individual room control. Endeavour Foundation’s new homes meet the Platinum Level of the Livable Housing Australia (LHA) and are built above and beyond what is required by legislation for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA).
Endeavour Foundation places a strong emphasis on helping individuals build skills and confidence in jobs they love. They offer Supported Employment opportunities at their Social Enterprise – Endeavour Foundation Business Solutions - in Slade Point, where jobs can be tailored to the unique abilities of workers.
Participating in employment with Endeavour Foundation offers people the chance to acquire new skills, be part of a team, and earn an income. If you're 16 or older, you can work in a commercial setting with the support and guidance of Employment Coaches and Production Team Leaders. Employment becomes a gateway for personal growth, job satisfaction, and building lasting connections with colleagues.
Supported Employment, funded through the NDIS, enables people to develop their skills within a secure setting before seeking employment in mainstream workplaces, should they wish to. While many employers would like to hire someone with disability, they often don’t know where to start. Endeavour Foundation makes it easier for employers and employees by continuing to offer NDIS-funded support as people transition to mainstream work and progress in their careers.
By choosing Endeavour Foundation for your business solutions, you’ll receive high quality products and services while helping to provide meaningful employment for people with disability. From confidential document destruction to producing quality timber products, the work achieved at the Slade Point Social Enterprise is changing lives while providing valuable products and labour for local businesses.
Endeavour Foundation is here to unlock potential, remove barriers, and champion inclusivity in the community. Their comprehensive range of services is designed to inspire and uplift, creating a brighter future for all who seek to realise their dreams and aspirations.
