Tips for Applicants
This is not a typical grant-making foundation to which organisations apply directly. Instead, it serves as a vehicle for high-net-worth individuals/families to establish their own charitable subfunds. Those seeking funding should identify the individual subfunds within the Australian Unity Trustees Foundation that align with their cause.
Giving Philosophy
This is a philanthropic platform/vehicle rather than a traditional grant-maker. It enables donors to create their own charitable subfunds within the Australian Unity structure, distributing to charities and causes of the donor's choosing. The foundation handles investment, governance and administration so donors can focus on giving.
