The Scanlon Foundation’s Annual Community Grants 2021 will support projects that
demonstrate their contribution to social cohesion by addressing either of the
following areas of focus:
·
Building pathways to employment; or
- Increasing applied English
literacy.
Projects should consider the experience of
migrants and of receiving communities and aim to nurture positive outcomes. All
submissions are expected to empower new arrival communities and develop cross
cultural connections.
Funding Information
This year’s community grants will provide
funding up to a maximum of $30,000 for a 12 month project (implementation from
January to December 2022).
Eligibility Criteria
- The community grants are
eligible for all locations across each state and territory of Australia.
- The Foundation can only provide
grants to organisations with Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) 1 status.
Your organisation is welcome to partner with an organisation who has DGR 1
status (auspice) so long as the application comes directly from the
organisation with DGR 1 status.
- Local government bodies are
welcome to apply for specific projects through the annual Community Grants
where these projects engage and empower the broader community including
both new and emerging and receiving communities. However, any local
government would need to have obtained DGR1 status.
