Coorong Environmental Trust
Low
Annual Giving
$25K
Grant Range
$1K – $100K
Tips for Applicants
Given the Trust's small size, focus on its own operational activities, and lack of explicit grant application information, it is unlikely to accept unsolicited grant applications. Potential partners should align closely with its specific mission for the Lower Lakes and Coorong and consider collaborative project proposals rather than seeking direct funding.
Giving Philosophy
The Trust primarily operates to conduct its own environmental work, focusing on scientific data generation, integrating traditional knowledge, and community engagement for the Coorong region. Its limited annual giving likely supports its direct operational activities or highly specific collaborative projects aligned with its mission, rather than broad grant-making.

Financial Details
Source of Wealth
The Trust's wealth likely comes from community fundraising efforts and small investments, as indicated by its 'Fundraising & Investments' section and a comment about being 'entirely unfunded'.
