The Tim Fairfax Family Foundation (TFFF) exists to support rural, regional and remote communities in Queensland and the Northern Territory to address the particular challenges they face due to geographic location.

It was established in June 2008 by Founder and Chairman Tim Fairfax AC, Trustees Gina Fairfax AC and Jim Peterson (Responsible Person) and Advisors Sarah O’Brien, Lucy Coulson, Fiona Poschelk and Prue Pateras.

The TFFF focuses on initiatives that are locally driven, support leadership, encourage diversity, strengthen community and involve collaboration between both private and public sector partners. It works to make reality a future where people in rural, regional and remote areas of Queensland and the Northern Territory are afforded a level of opportunity equal to their metropolitan counterparts.
