Giving Philosophy

Seed believes in community-led, culturally safe education as the pathway to self-determination for First Peoples. Their model focuses on addressing gaps in the transition from secondary education to training and employment, with an emphasis on returning graduates to work in their home communities to create lasting health improvements. They partner with Registered Training Organisations and universities to provide nationally recognised qualifications while offering holistic case management.

Wealth Source:Seed Foundation Australia was founded by Michael Gleadow, a former teacher at Aborgowrie State High School. The foundation grew out of Connect 'n' Grow, a Registered Training Organisation delivering health training since 2012. The wealth source appears to be social enterprise/income from training services rather than inherited wealth.

Tips for Applicants

As a small operational foundation focused on direct service delivery rather than grant-making, Seed Foundation Australia does not appear to offer external grant programs. Organizations seeking funding should focus on partnership opportunities rather than traditional grant applications. The foundation's strength lies in its direct delivery of training and mentorship programs.
