The Trustee For The Royal Children's Hospital Foundation No. 2 Trust
Concentration RiskGiving Philosophy
The foundation preserves all donated funds for clinical excellence and works closely with the RCH to provide sustainable funding aligned with hospital-determined priorities. Their theory of change focuses on filling gaps that government funding cannot cover, enabling the hospital to achieve outcomes above and beyond standard care. Funding decisions are made through a formal governance structure with the CEO deciding on grants up to $50,000 and the Grants Committee overseeing larger allocations.
Tips for Applicants
Applicants must first complete an Expression of Interest (EOI) approved by their relevant Chief/Executive Director before developing a full proposal. The RCH CEO must endorse all proposals before they reach the Foundation. For amounts over $50,000, the Grants Committee makes decisions. MCRI and University of Melbourne applicants must seek internal management approval first and allow at least 6 weeks for internal processes. Contact rch.grants@rch.org.au for process queries or grants.foundation@rch.org.au for other grant-related questions.
