Who We Are

Our Vision

To empower those who enhance the quality of life for our ageing communities.

Our Mission

To provide financial assistance to help initiatives become a reality for charities who care for our ageing communities, support their independence, and who are committed to helping them live well.
Ui Star Accent

A commitment to help the aged live well

The Eastern Star Foundation is a philanthropic foundation whose focus is helping to improve outcomes for the aged.

Our history of caring for the aged dates back to 1954, when a group of Order of the Eastern Star members established the organisation with a mission to provide a home for their aged members. The organisation later became an aged and community care provider, known as Star Aged Living and based at Beaudesert in Queensland, before that business was sold in 2018.

Established as a foundation in 2019, the organisation’s activities are underpinned by its values of dignity, independence and hope. Through our partnerships with charities and other philanthropists, we help the aged to:
