Across the globe, good corporate citizenship is a core value of The Boeing Company and integral to the way its business is conducted. Giving back to the communities in which we live and work is essential, and in Australia, this is no exception.

- The Clontarf Foundation and STARS Foundation both provide services in schools for boys and girls to support and improve educational matters such as improving school attendance and year 12 completion, future employment opportunities and overall health outcomes.

Boeing Australia employees also support charities throughout the year during fundraising or awareness drives. Further, Boeing employees can make contributions to charities through Boeing’s workplace giving program.
Being part of a community also means being there when times get tough, and Boeing has played a part in making financial donations to communities at times of great need in Australia.
At Boeing Australia, whether it’s with civic organisations or during times of emergency, our nearly 5000 employees are here to help.
