Creating real change

At The Choice Foundation we strive to give all people more choices in how they want to live their lives.

We do this by funding disability programs and projects that create lasting change across education, sport, wellbeing and community inclusion.

Offering support through JCA Member Organisations, we are creating services that allow everyone to contribute to and benefit from the community we share.

2026 Funded Programs

Surfs Up

Maccabi All Abilities

Providing a safe and fun environment where individuals can develop ocean awareness, surf skills and improve fitness—all while having fun.

Run by Let's Go Surfing and located at Bondi Beach, each session wraps up with a relaxed picnic where our surfers have a chance to connect and form lasting friendships with others who love the ocean (or just love a good time).

Swim’s Up

Maccabi All Abilities

An extension of Surfs Up - Swim’s up offers an opportunity to build on your fitness through aqua aerobic classes. Classes are offered to all abilities in a fun and dynamic lesson in a warm indoor pool.

New Dimensions

JewishCare

A social program for 15-17 and 18-21 year olds living with ADHD, Autism level 1 or anyone who finds it challenging to make friends and socialise. At New Dimensions we offer regular and fun outings and promise to support new friendships and help grow your networks.

We choose to make an impact.

The Choice Foundation continues to create a just, accessible, and empowering community through our dynamic programs and relentless commitment to inclusion.

By nurturing innovative initiatives and collaborating with community partners, we help every individual with a disability exercise their right to choice, to live fully, and to contribute meaningfully.

How we work

At The Choice Foundation there are two ways that our programs and projects come to life.

People with big ideas.

We’re talking about individuals who have an innovative idea about how inclusive practice could best be achieved in our community. Tell us about your big idea and then, if successful, we will fund your idea and assist you to identify which JCA organisation could best run your idea.

Forward thinking organisations.

We encourage all JCA constituent organisations to think about how they would make their workplace more inclusive for people of all abilities.

Making a difference is a choice.

There are different ways you can get involved at The Choice Foundation.

If you or someone you know would like to participate in one of our programs, please reach out and let us know.
