Soldier On Australia has welcomed a new community partnership with Toll Group’s Government and Defence business, supporting serving and ex-serving Australian Defence Force (ADF) personnel and their families.
The partnership will help Soldier On continue its work supporting members of the Defence community and their families, while also creating an additional way for Toll to contribute through its existing Defence Relocations contract.
Toll relocates approximately 23,000 ADF members and their families each year as part of the Defence posting cycle. Under the new initiative, Toll will donate $1 to Soldier On for every ADF Defence Relocations Survey completed following a relocation.
Paul Singer, CEO of Soldier On Australia, said the partnership was an important endorsement of the organisation’s work supporting the Defence community.
‘To get the support of such a large, global organisation and recognised Australian brand like Toll Group we think is an amazing endorsement of the work that we’re doing. Together, this partnership will allow us to continue to enable Defence families who are facing challenges in their lives to get the right support, at the right time – which is so important to us and Toll Group.’
Perry Singh, President of Toll Government and Defence, said the organisation was proud to formalise its support for Soldier On.
‘Whilst we have supported and contributed to many community and social initiatives over the years, we felt the time was right to increase our contribution and formally partner with a reputable organisation that has Defence members and ex-Veterans at the very heart of what they do. We couldn’t be happier and prouder to partner with Soldier On and contribute to the fantastic work that they do – as well as assist with some more exciting plans in the future’, said Mr Singh.
Mr Singh said linking the survey initiative to Toll’s existing Defence Relocations contract was a natural way to support serving and ex-serving personnel and their families.
‘We think that is a natural connection to link what we are already doing at Toll for Defence personnel and their families through our Defence Relocations contract, to what Soldier On are doing every day to assist serving and ex-serving Australian Defence personnel and their families. Every little bit helps!’
The partnership brings together Toll’s established role in Defence relocations and Soldier On’s work supporting serving and ex-serving ADF personnel and their families.
