Tips for Applicants

Given their focus on evidence-based mental health and wellbeing programs and priority cohorts, applicants should demonstrate measurable outcomes for young people, particularly in mental health/wellbeing, and show how their programs address barriers for disadvantaged, Indigenous, and regional/rural youth. The foundation values scalability and impact across multiple delivery channels (digital, face-to-face, camps).

Giving Philosophy

The foundation takes a systems change approach, aiming to create a stronger and more sustainable for-purpose sector for young people. They prioritize equity and access, with over 50% of program participants coming from three priority cohorts: young people experiencing disadvantage, First Nations/Indigenous young people, and regional/rural young people. They provide financial support through scholarship funds to address barriers to participation.
