Our footprint extends from site into communities beyond
eHealth Consortium acknowledges Aboriginal Traditional Owners
eHealth Consortium acknowledges Aboriginal Traditional Owners of Country throughout and pays respect to their cultures and Elders past, present and emerging.
Pitjantjatjara elder Mr Donald Fraser founded the XLB Group Indigenous Business Initiative PTY LTD (IBI) with the desire to create private business initiatives designed to empower people by helping them obtain financial independence. Preserving culture, respecting a long heritage & empowering people are all IBI values; eHealth is proud of our affiliation with XLB Group.
We are highly engaged with our local community
eHealth is registered with Indigenous Business Australia and some of our social activities this year include the Vinnie’s CEO sleepout & Foodbank Volunteering workshops; we are focused on giving back to the community & encourage all staff to participate regardless of tenure or position. In addition; we have 2 very large metal bins, 2 green bins and 2 yellow bins; this enables us to heavily recycle all materials coming in and out of our 3 buildings. Our recycling initiatives also carry through to the paper we use; our botany natural is Australian made and from 100% recyclable inputs.
Foodbank Victoria
Whether its disasters like the recent bushfires or the Covid-19 Food Crisis, Foodbank Victoria has been there to provide food, comfort, and support for 90 years. Our team were more then happy to help and packed 14175.8 kgs of food, equivalent to approximately 25540 meals for our community. The smiles, laughter & teamwork was in abundance; with lunch consisting of Footscray’s best kebabs! Thank you to the Foodbank Volunteering team for facilitating such an awesome day, we will return!
Food For Change
With Peter and his son Luke taking the lead, our team spent the day @ Food for Change Foundation in Clayton South. Currently 1 in 10 Australians seek food relief annually & 1 in 4 are turned away. We planted lettuce & broccoli seedlings, thinned out turnip patches & bonded as a team. A big thanks to Matt for this fantastic opportunity & huge kudos to the mission
Vinnie’s CEO Sleepout
The Vinnies CEO Sleepout is a one-night event over one of the longest and coldest nights of the year, members of our team will be sleeping outdoors to support the many Australians who are experiencing homelessness and people at risk of homelessness. Our collective fundraising efforts helps Vinnies provide essential services to people living on our streets. 2019’s event was at the South Melbourne Market; 2020 (due to isolation) will be “in your car, in your backyard (outdoors); or on your couch,” each of which represents common forms of homelessness.
