Large Grants

Our Large Grants support organisations capable of delivering change, which are well connected to their community.

We support organisations working to reduce barriers and improve outcomes for communities of need across our funding regions. This funding programme is for organisations requesting over $20,000.

What you need to know
  • There are no closing dates - you choose when to apply.
  • Generally the time-frame* for a funding decision will be up to four months once we have received a complete application and all the required information.
  • You need to complete an application form which focuses on the needs of your organisation and the outcomes you are expecting to achieve.
  • You need to submit a strategic or business plan and a budget. We may ring you or arrange a site visit to learn more about the work you do.
  • You can only receive one grant in our financial year (1 April to 31 March). You can apply to only one grants programme at a time.

*Time frames specified may vary slightly due to public holidays.
