  • Applicants must be a registered business or incorporation with non-profit objectives.
  • Applicants must have a letter of DGR (Deductible Gift Recipient status) from the ATO.
  • Applicants must supply evidence of their charitable purposes eg. Detailed in their constitution.
  • Applications for grants valued at $10,000 or less may be viewed more favourably by Trustees (as opposed to larger grant requests).
