We welcome applications for new initiatives or projects that need a small amount of funding.
The fund is available to new and existing partners.
Organisations seeking Seed funding that are not registered with Charities Services must submit a letter of support (dated within the last 12 months) from a registered organisation that is familiar with the project. There will be no requirement for entities that have legal status.
An annual budget of $100,000 will be available for grants of up to $10,000 to be agile and responsive. Grants will be approved under Delegated Financial Authority.
How do I apply?
Applications will be received through our SmartyGrants portal here.
How often can I apply?
We will only approve one grant, per organisation, per financial year (1 July to 30 June). Before submitting a new funding application, please ensure that any required reports from previous grants have been completed.
When are decisions made?
Seed is open for the entirety of the financial year (1 July to 30 June), decisions are made monthly once we have all the information we need.
