Tips for Applicants

This is primarily a fundraising foundation that raises money FROM the community rather than distributing TO external organizations. They fund internal St John of God Health Care initiatives including medical equipment, research at their hospitals (particularly Subiaco Hospital in WA), and infrastructure projects. Research grant opportunities appear focused on clinicians within the St John of God network. If you're an external organization, this foundation is not suitable for grant applications - they fundraise to support their own health care system's needs.

Giving Philosophy

The Foundation focuses on enabling world-class healthcare through community philanthropy, supporting areas where government funding falls short. They prioritize clinician-led research with translatable outcomes, state-of-the-art medical equipment, transformational healthcare facilities, and programs for vulnerable populations. Their approach emphasizes local community benefit while aiming for broader healthcare impact.
