What is a BHAG?


Jim Collins is one of the world’s most respected business authors. His ‘reach for the sky’ phrase is ‘Big Hairy Audacious Goal’ (BHAG). Jim thinks every business, organisation (or individual for that matter), should have a BHAG. Ours is that, in 2020 we will:

  • Visit 52 charities in 52 weeks;
  • Give each charity up to $10,000; and
  • Give away $520,000 in total !
  • That much we can control.

    The rest of our BHAG is up to you. We would like:

  • 52,000 Australians to join us and create their own giving plan.
  • Inspire 52 Australians to create their own charitable family Foundation
  • If 52,000 Australians gave just $1 a week, that is over $2.7M raised!

    That’s awesome, but let’s really have a ‘moon shot’ idea.

    If 52 Australians were to follow the lead of Anton and Jenny Gaudry and establish a private Foundation, (and if each of these persons donated $1M to their own family Foundation), we will have collectively raised $52M for charity.
    That’s a BHAG!

    Without dreaming BIG, we never achieve our limits. So, c’mon Australia, think BIG for a good, charitable cause. Make a difference with your own family Foundation or giving plan
