The SALT Foundation began with a simple, profound belief: everyone deserves a life filled with purpose, belonging, and trust. Our journey started in 2011 with a humble food van, feeding those in need on the streets of Melbourne.
This simple act of kindness, led by our founders Roger and Catherine Donnelley, grew into something more. It became a mission—a calling to create a sustainable organisation that could not only provide quality care for people with disabilities but also use its success to combat poverty and suffering on a global scale.
We are a not-for-profit NDIS provider with a difference. What makes us truly unique is our commitment to a higher purpose. All profits from our NDIS services are channeled directly back into our community projects, such as our food relief program and other initiatives that promote physical, social, and mental well-being.
When you choose The SALT Foundation, you are not just getting exceptional care; you are helping us build a more compassionate world.
You deserve to feel included and supported. At SALT, we help NDIS participants get the support they need, enjoy meaningful activities, and feel connected while working towards their personal goals.
We understand you work hard to help your family members and sometimes feel like no one else really cares about them. We’re here to help you and give your loved one the kind support they deserve.
We make it easy for you to help your participants get the support they need. No more chasing unreliable providers or managing preventable crises. Just trusted partners who respond quickly and deliver what we promise.

In a world where many NDIS providers focus on a one-on-one model, we stand apart with our “team approach.” We believe that genuine support comes from a network of dedicated professionals working together to meet your needs. Our team includes Disability Support Workers, Support Coordinators, and Psychosocial Recovery Coaches, all of whom are committed to empowering you to achieve your goals.
We understand every individual is on a unique journey. That’s why our approach is built on trust, respect, and personalised care. We take the time to get to know you, understand your aspirations, and tailor our services to help you reach your full potential. This dedication to individualised support ensures that you always feel seen, heard, and valued.
