The Cage Youth Foundation began as a vision to bring hope and connection to the young people of Redlands. Founded by Peter and Linda Grieve in 2001, our story started with a simple but powerful idea: to create a good environment for youth and families facing life’s toughest challenges.
“The Cage” stands for Creating A Good Environment, a name that reflects our mission to inspire change, foster connection, and build brighter futures. What began with community events and outreach BBQs at local skate parks grew into a drop-in youth centre in the heart of Capalaba. Today, it has evolved into a thriving foundation serving Redlands with innovative programs, mental health support, and community initiatives.
Peter and Linda’s dream of making a difference was rooted in compassion and a deep commitment to their community. Today, their legacy continues as The Cage remains a trusted source of support, empowerment, and belonging for countless families and young people.
Meeting every person with empathy and care, we strive to understand needs, ensuring everyone feels seen, heard and supported.
Building trust through transparency and honesty, we stay true to our commitments and uphold the highest standards in everything we do.
Creating a sense of belonging for everyone we serve, we bring people together to build stronger connections and shared purpose.
Providing tools and resources to help individuals thrive, we inspire confidence and enable people to achieve their goals.
Go MAD – Go Make a Difference. We’re building a Redlands community where every youth and family feels safe, supported, valued, and empowered to thrive.
We exist to provide practical, person-centered services that enhance the well-being and opportunities of disadvantaged youth and families. Through compassionate care, impactful programs, and community engagement, we’re building a foundation of hope and resilience.
Behind every program and every success story is a team of passionate individuals working together to create lasting change.
