Tips for Applicants

Approach this funder by demonstrating your organisation is Aboriginal-led, has proven community trust and impact, shows governance robustness, and has clear potential for growth or self-sufficiency. Emphasise direct benefits to Aboriginal clients and any training, employment or leadership development opportunities your programs provide.

Giving Philosophy

It prioritises groups with growth potential, training and employment opportunities, strong governance models, and capacity to offer social leadership. The Foundation values organisations that are Aboriginal-run and serve Aboriginal communities.

Financial Details

Source of Wealth

The Foundation relies on donations from the community and corporate sector, with limited sporadic funding from government and non-government sources. It has no offices or paid staff, meaning donations go directly to recipient organisations.
