The Ian Potter Foundation is one of Australia's largest philanthropic foundations, established in 1964 by Sir Ian Potter AC, a pioneering stockbroker and businessman. The Foundation supports organisations and projects across six key program areas: Arts, Community Wellbeing, Early Childhood Development, Environment, Medical Research, and Public Health, with a focus on innovation, collaboration, and systemic change.

The Foundation emphasizes evidence-based grant making, collaborative philanthropy, and long-term systemic impact. It seeks to support innovative projects that address gaps in government funding, leverage partnerships with other funders, and drive sustainable change. The Foundation values organizational capacity building, provides both monetary and non-monetary support, and regularly surveys grantees to improve its practices. Recent initiatives demonstrate a commitment to co-funding models and establishing independent organizations for systemic reform, such as Watertrust Australia Ltd.
