Perpetual Trustees Grants

The Foundations managed by Perpetual support a wide range of charitable purposes and projects within the community.

 

Thanks to the generosity of their philanthropic clients, Perpetual is able to distribute more than $50 million each year on behalf of the charitable trusts that we manage. Non-profit organisations have the opportunity to apply for grants from those trusts through our annual funding rounds.

Perpetuals Trusts and Foundations recognise that for organisations to achieve their objectives, funds may need to be directed towards operational costs which are not necessarily project-specific. Please apply for your organisation's greatest strategic need. Gifts generally range between $10,000 and $100,000.

 

The maximum amount an organisation can request is $200,000.

 

We will focus on the following criteria in our assessment of proposals - assessment criteria will be based on the governance of the organisation including the following:

 

Strategy - Evidence of strategic goals and objectives, as well as monitored, evaluated, and outcome-oriented measures. This also encompasses the organisation's mission and the ability of the organisation to fulfil the mission through the activity for which funding is requested.

 

Outcomes - Evidence of realistic, measurable and achievable goals and outcomes, including societal impact.

 

Capability - The organisations demonstrated ability to achieve its objectives, evidence that the organisation is striving towards a sustainable business model, and effective and efficient business practises.

 

Leadership  - Demonstration and willingness of the organisation to co-operate with other charitable and non charitable  organisations pursuing similar goals and the ability to leverage opportunities, including sharing learning's. Awareness of the external environment including public policy, government, other organisations working within the sector and the community.

 

You must be a charitable organisation with Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) Status to apply for this grant.
