About

The Ryder-Cheshire Foundation of South Australia is part of a national and international network dedicated to the relief of suffering without discrimination. Based in Mount Gambier, SA, it supports health and disability programs domestically and internationally, particularly in India and Timor-Leste, through residential homes, medical programs, and volunteer coordination.

Tips for Applicants

Given the small annual giving budget and specific affiliation with Ryder-Cheshire Australia's international network, applications should align closely with their existing programs in disability and health relief. Direct engagement with the organisation to understand current priorities is recommended before applying.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation focuses on direct relief of suffering through practical support to residential homes and health programs, valuing volunteer involvement and operating without discrimination. It prioritises partnerships with affiliated organisations in India and Timor-Leste.
