About

Small charity. Serves: young people, older people, families. Operates in: VIC, QLD, ACT.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation believes in preserving engineering excellence and the pursuit of perfection exemplified by Sir Henry Royce's motto. Rather than operating as a traditional granting body, the foundation advances its charitable objects through maintaining a physical collection of archives, engines, vehicles and artifacts, providing educational facilities including workshops and a library, and making resources available to researchers, students and the public.

Wealth Source:The foundation was established through donations from members of the Rolls-Royce Owners' Club of Australia and has been funded by charitable contributions from club members and supporters. It acquired properties through generous donations from individuals including Jean Allsep (Bill Allsep House) and Lionel Gell (Lionel Gell School of Instruction).

Tips for Applicants

This foundation does not appear to operate traditional grant programs. It is primarily a collection-based heritage organization that makes its archives, library and facilities available to researchers and the public. Those seeking funding should consider that the foundation's focus is on in-kind access to collections rather than financial grants. The foundation welcomes researchers and accepts donations of relevant artifacts.
