When good business creates good outcomes

Australian businesses outsource thousands of small but essential jobs.  Packing conference satchels. Stuffing envelopes. Labelling products. Assembling welcome packs. Preparing seasonal hampers. Recycling e-waste. Shredding old files, making pallets.  

Often these procurement decisions are made on price, convenience and reliability. 

But what if they could also strengthen communities? Or even change someone’s life? 

Every day, across Australia, hundreds of people with intellectual disability arrive at an Endeavour Foundation workplace. They greet colleagues, put on their name badges, settle into familiar routines and get to work. Like any workplace, it's about getting the job done… but it's also about something much bigger. 

At the Endeavour Foundation, it’s about earning an income and learning new skills. But beyond the work side, it’s about building confidence and finding independence. Sharing morning tea with workmates. Feeling part of a team. Having somewhere to belong. 

For many of the foundation’s employees, their workplace is where they find purpose, routine and a community that feels like family away from home. And every new business partnership helps make those opportunities possible. 

For 75 years, Endeavour Foundation has supported people with disability to thrive at home, work and in the community. But they’re also an experienced commercial outsourcing partner and are taking on new clients.  

Every year, businesses across Australia trust Endeavour Foundation Business Solutions with everything from contract packaging and fulfilment to product assembly, labelling and logistics. Their teams deliver reliable, quality-assured services while creating meaningful employment opportunities for people with disability. 

Businesses that partner with Endeavour Business Solutions see their commercial outcomes fulfilled, while also contributing to meaningful employment, stronger communities and greater inclusion. 

Not charity. Good business with positive impact. 

Endeavour Foundation has built a reputation for delivering dependable commercial services that help organisations meet deadlines, manage workloads and scale production when they need extra capacity. For organisations looking to deepen their commitment to inclusion, Endeavour Foundation can also support pathways to inclusive employment, helping businesses access diverse talent and create workplaces where people with disability can thrive. 

If your business is looking for suppliers that align with your ESG and social procurement goals, partnering with Endeavour Foundation can strengthen your supply chain, while creating value beyond the bottom line by supporting meaningful employment for Australians with disability. 

Businesses can also commission artwork for offices, purchase unique corporate gifts, collaborate on creative projects or support exhibitions that celebrate inclusion and creativity. 

QArt is Endeavour Foundation's creative enterprise, showcasing original artwork by talented artists with disability, and is another way organisations can invest in Australian talent while creating opportunities for artists to share their work with a wider audience. 

smartMonday has proudly partnered with Endeavour Foundation for around 15 years. Today, around 2,800 Endeavour employees are smartMonday members, including around 1,500 supported members. 

Over the years, we've worked together to make superannuation more accessible by creating Easy Read communications to help supported members better understand their super and have partnered on initiatives to maximise smaller balances. 

Like Endeavour Foundation, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to build a brighter future. 

So, we invite you our partner to create a ripple effect via procurement decisions, that last far beyond the job itself.  

The next time your organisation needs products packed, conference materials assembled, confidential documents destroyed, pallets manufactured, artwork commissioned or promotional kits prepared, it’s worth asking: Who could this work help? Someone building confidence, building their own income, finding friendship and taking pride in going out to work?  

That’s something smartMonday, is proud to stand beside as Endeavour Foundation’s long-term superannuation partner.
