Little Things, Big Difference
Whether you meet your community at the end of the street, in the lift of your apartment building, or interact with your workplace community in the lobby, we know people make a place and all the little ‘hellos’ add up to the big things in life.
History
In 2021 we launched our first community space, The Summer Hill Little BIG House at 16 Flour Mill Way, Summer Hill. Despite the tail wind of a global pandemic, several lockdowns and rising disconnection, we saw a spike in community connection. We hope this is just the start of our story.
Since then, we have curated office communities too. We call it Good Work, which aims to build and maintain happy, healthier, kinder communities at work. We foster a sense of belonging that reduces loneliness and contributes to a positive work environment throughout an entire building.
Our Founder
The Little BIG Foundation is founded and funded by EG, a leading Australian real estate fund manager and property developer who seeks to curate communities and have an ongoing community development.
