Support the Club that Supports You!

Brothers Leagues Club Cairns is committed to helping our local community. Every year we focus on helping the community with local health issues, assisting sporting organisations with a specific focus on junior sports teams and providing education support.

As a not-for-profit organisation, monies earned by Brothers go back into helping the local community. Last year Brothers donated more than $500,000 in cash and in kind donations to different organisations. We are continually looking for new ways to add value to our community.  As Cairns is geographically isolated from Queensland's capital, and therefore the concentration of government funding, many local charities, schools and sporting groups rely heavily on the backing from Cairns businesses and other organisations. We make financial contributions, by giving money in response to special appeals, we support national community service events and we contribute to the fundraising efforts of our local schools.  We have a range of resources that can be given in kind, including the use of our function and meeting rooms. We also encourage our people to donate their time to help local communities by providing specialist skills, management advice and assistance with events and programs. 

In selecting its community partners Brothers Leagues Club looks for organisations that have a focus on issues that affect the local area, with a focus on the welfare of the youth, the health of the local population as well as a local sporting organisations to encourage a healthier lifestyle for all demographics within the community.

In addition to the charities and organisations that are assisted by our Club, we also have programs and initiatives within the Club, which are non profit making, and provide a service to our members and guests such as our Seniors Social group "Club Gold", and our Kids Club.
