Low
Annual Giving
$100K
Grant Range
$5K – $500K
Tips for Applicants
Organisations should emphasise how their programs address disadvantage, support vulnerable populations, or serve the foundation's broad beneficiary groups. Given the foundation's focus on both Victoria and ACT with modest annual giving, applications should be realistic in scope and clearly demonstrate impact on identified at-risk populations.
Giving Philosophy
The Sunnyside Foundation takes an inclusive, broad-based approach to philanthropy, supporting multiple vulnerable populations across diverse need areas. The foundation appears to prioritize addressing social disadvantage, homelessness, and supporting marginalized communities including Indigenous Australians and victims of crime.
