Our Supporters
Almost 90% of our work is funded through donations provided by our generous supporters, our fee for services and grants with the remaining 10% provided from various levels of government. The success of our appeals and Art Union are important to maintaining the services PCYC Queensland provides.
Our operations continue to be bolstered by the kind response to our fundraising efforts and the generosity of legacy supporters, regular supporters and new supporters who join us in making a difference to the lives of young people.

Our regular appeals have continued to see unwavering support from our valued donors in the face of economic pressures that might otherwise affect their ability to give.
As we continue to increase the ways our members and supporters can give back to PCYC Queensland, it has been encouraging to see the fundraising efforts of members, parents, local businesses, our sponsors and partners and the communities in which we work as they contribute greatly to supporting our vision.
Thank you to all those who have raised funds for and made in-kind donations to PCYC Queensland this year.
Cherished Gifts
A bequest creates an incredible legacy of impact through ongoing support for a cause close to the hearts of those who have passed. PCYC Queensland is honoured to have received donations from a number of supporters through a gift in their will. We would like to recognise the extraordinary generosity of those supporters as we commit to ensuring their legacy has impact for the young people it will benefit.
Workplace Givers
The support we receive from QPS members who make donations through Workplace Giving continues to help to power our mission. Whilst COVID disruptions continue to affect our ability to meet and engage new QPS members in donating to PCYC Queensland, we are grateful to the many QPS officers choosing to make a regular donation from their pay to support the vital services we deliver.
Containers for Change
Our clubs have deposited over 93,656 eligible containers through the Containers for Change initiative this year, reducing their impact on the environment and raising much needed funds. The initiative was also recently introduced to our OSHC services where students and families can contribute their own eligible containers to support their service’s fundraising goals. This expansion adds 103 new recycling sites to the 47 clubs already participating in the container deposit scheme.
