Low
Annual Giving
$25K

Tips for Applicants
Given the small annual budget of $25,000 and family-focused beneficiary type, applications should be for modest-sized, local environmental projects in Victoria that directly engage or benefit families. Keep proposals simple, community-focused, and aligned with tangible environmental outcomes.
Giving Philosophy
Northern Connection Trust focuses on environmental initiatives that benefit families within Victoria. Given its small scale and recent establishment, it likely prioritises hands-on, community-based environmental projects with clear, measurable outcomes.
