Our Board

Simon McKeon

Our Patron

Simon McKeon AO is the chancellor of Monash University and record-breaking yachtsman, but it’s his efforts to support multiple Australian and international charities which has earned him great admiration. Simon has had a long involvement in the not-for-profit sector having chaired a range of organisations including MS Research Australia, Independent Schools Victoria, Summer Housing, In2Science, Business for Development and the Australian Industry Energy Transitions Initiative...

“My involvement with Eastern Volunteers began as a speaker at the Business Booster Breakfast back in November 2011.  The corporate world needs to invest in their local community, which provides benefits to both businesses and not-for-profit organisations.“
