Passionate about bringing positive change
At Jon & Jon Medical we are passionate about bringing positive change in people’s lives, so they can experience the best version of themselves.
We proudly sponsor the Indigenous Literacy Foundation to help change lives by giving back through our everyday business activities.
In remote indigenous communities, books can be scarce and literacy levels are often much lower than anywhere in Australia. Each time Jon & Jon Medical helps a doctor with the next step in their career, we also contribute towards making a difference to the lives of Indigenous families by not only gifting thousands of new, culturally appropriate books – with a focus on early literacy and first language – but also by sponsoring the Indigenous Literacy Foundation to help run programs to inspire the communities to tell and publish their own stories, in the languages they choose
More than just recruitment
Every time we help a doctor, hospital or practice, we also get to help make a difference in the lives of Indigenous families across Australia
Here are some examples of our everyday business activities that we link to our giving.
- When we place a doctor in a locum position
- When we place a doctor in a permanent position
- When a doctor refers another doctor to us
- When a doctor registers as a new candidate with Jon & Jon Medical
A huge thank you to all of the Doctors. Together, with you, we are making a difference through our everyday work.
Our Impact
We cannot thank you enough for supporting our program. We have seen firsthand the benefits of increased positive experiences of early reading including conversational reading, reading with family and looking at books independently. We know that reading opens doors and the books you provide help give disadvantaged children the opportunity to do this and develop a love of literacy from the beginning.

We really appreciate the awesome range of books, especially the Indigenous books that are supplied to our school. To have books written and illustrated by Indigenous people shows the students that Indigenous people are capable of anything.

We offer a book to all the paediatric patients we see, especially if they are having a painful procedure done. The kids love them and they get to take one home, hopefully it also helps not to make a hospital a scary place for the kids.
