THE TRUSTEE FOR THE GEORGE LEWIN FOUNDATION
Low
Annual Giving
$100K
Grant Range
$5K – $500K
Tips for Applicants
Applicants should emphasize how their programs serve vulnerable or disadvantaged populations, particularly youth, aged persons, people with disabilities, or rural communities. Organizations working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples or addressing chronic illness may find particular alignment with this funder's priorities.
Giving Philosophy
The foundation adopts an inclusive, broad-based approach to philanthropy, supporting multiple vulnerable populations across diverse needs rather than specializing in a single cause. Its dual focus on Australian and Ukrainian beneficiaries suggests a commitment to international humanitarian concerns alongside domestic social welfare.
