St.George Foundation is calling on community organisations focused on providing brighter futures for children to apply for grant funding of up to $50,000 each, with applications now open.

Grants will be awarded to eligible Australian community organisations that work to provide a brighter future for socially, economically or physically disadvantaged children.

St.George Foundation’s last grants awarded a total of $1 million in funding to a variety of organisations, including Stella Bella Little Stars Foundation, which supports children who suffer from long term, serious illnesses.

Suzanne Tunks, Founder of Stella Bella Little Stars Foundation said, “We were overwhelmed to receive a $50,000 grant from St.George Foundation, allowing us to fund our Little Star Beads program to support seriously ill children and their families.”

To be eligible for funding, an organisation must:

  • focus its efforts on Australian children under the age of 18 years
  • be located in NSW, ACT, QLD or WA
  • have a gross annual revenue of less than $3,000,000
  • receive less than 40 per cent of its income from recurrent state, federal or local government funding (unless it receives an income less than $1 million per annum, in which case Government funding can exceed 40 per cent)
  • be endorsed as a deductible gift recipient (but not another ancillary fund). Deductible Gift Recipients must be listed with the Australian Taxation Office under Item 1 of the Table in Section 30-15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act, 1936

Applications are open until 10 February 2017. To find out more about the process to apply, visit www.stgeorgefoundation.com.au.
