Connecting Communities.
Connecting Communities.
Who We Are
Emerging from the 100-year legacy of the Australian Post-Tel Institute Qld Ltd, canopy Community focuses on education, social support, and fostering connections within communities where our early education centres are located. Funded by canopy Early Education, we aim to support vulnerable community members through on-site and community-embedded programs.
Our Story
With roots in the century-old Australian Post-Tel Institute Qld Ltd, we have a longstanding commitment to education and community support. In response to the 2022 SE Qld floods, we expanded our efforts to include emergency relief, providing furnishings to affected families and practical assistance. Our annual Christmas Giving Program continues to bring joy and essential support to hundreds of women and children each year, through partnered giving with our key stakeholders. Beneficiaries include The Lady Musgrave Trust, Queensland Women’s Legal Service and Pyjama Foundation.
