Our Patron

Her Excellency the Honourable Dr Jeannette Young AC PSM, Governor of Queensland 

Endeavour Foundation is honoured to have Her Excellency the Honourable Dr Jeannette Young AC PSM, Governor of Queensland, as our Patron. 

Her Excellency’s patronage recognises the positive impact Endeavour Foundation makes in the lives of people with intellectual disability and our ongoing commitment to demonstrating the power of inclusion across Queensland and Australia. 

For more than 70 years, Endeavour Foundation has been powered by people who believe in inclusion – our clients, families, friends, volunteers, staff and supporters. As Patron, the Governor helps shine a light on that community, celebrating their voices, stories and achievements. 

Vice-Regal Patronage is a long-standing tradition that honours organisations making a real difference in the community. Her Excellency’s compassion and lifelong dedication to the wellbeing of others align closely with our mission, to create opportunity and empower independence for people with intellectual disability. 

As Patron, Her Excellency provides encouragement and recognition to our organisation and the people we support, helping raise awareness of the power of inclusion and the importance of opportunity for all.
