The Kindness That Builds: A Story of James & Beverley Montgomery Foundation

Real change happens when people roll up their sleeves, think big, and lead with heart. That’s support the James & Beverley Montgomery Foundation has brought to our community - and continues to bring.

James & Beverley Montgomery Foundation is more than just a funder.

They’re part of the Alkira family – connected through lived experience, shaped by a genuine belief in people, and powered by a clear vision for a more inclusive future.

Their approach is quietly powerful: creative, pragmatic, and always grounded in what matters most – opportunity, joy, and growth for people with disability.

Over time, their support has helped unlock confidence and pride through hands-on, skill-building programs. It has helped set the foundation for inclusive social enterprises that create real pathways to employment. It has even made possible those unforgettable moments: laughing with friends at the footy, catching a comedy show, or feeling the wind on your face during a boat ride on the Yarra. Experiences that should be part of everyone’s life, but too often are out of reach for people who don’t have enough support built into their NDIS plans.

The James & Beverley Montgomery Foundation sees these gaps, and instead of stepping back, they step in, with thoughtfulness and generosity. They don’t just fund ideas: they back people, they back action, and they back joy.

They’ve helped individuals take steps – sometimes small, sometimes bold – towards their goals, and they’ve done it in ways that ripple far beyond a single program. Their support brings people together in shared experiences, builds skills that last, and creates community along the way.

What’s most inspiring is that they’re not finished. The James & Beverley Montgomery Foundation has committed to walking this journey with Alkira, supporting initiatives that are practical, creative, and full of possibility.

And that’s the story we’ll keep telling. Not of donations, but of doors opened. Not of tools given, but of confidence built. Not of tickets bought, but of memories made.

Thank you to the James & Beverley Montgomery Foundation for your belief, your action, and your heart. You are helping shape lives, quietly and powerfully, every day.
