About the Jim Stynes Foundation
“If you let go of fear you can do anything – you can chase the things you really want to do and live the life you were born to live.” - Jim Stynes
We exist to carry on the legacy of Jim Stynes by improving the lives of young people.
The Jim Stynes Foundation is the community arm of the Melbourne Football Club, and just like Jim, is striving to create a generation of happy, healthy and resilient young people.
At its core, the Foundation delivers support for programs and initiatives focused on youth leadership and wellbeing as well as access to sporting opportunities and positive health outcomes for young Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander peoples.
The Foundation is proud to partner with a number of organisations and programs, supporting them in delivering positive outcomes for the young people of our community.
Our Values
The Jim Stynes Foundation shares its values with the Melbourne Football Club and is underpinned by a desire to make all people feel proud to belong.
