The Ian Potter Foundation ​Fair - Community Wellbeing Grants - EOI APPLICATIONS NOW OPEN

The Ian Potter Foundation- Fair - Community Wellbeing Program EOI is now open

FUNDER

The Ian Potter Foundation

FUNDING OPPORTUNITY

Ian Potter Foundation – Fair - Community Wellbeing

BRIEF DETAILS

The Community Wellbeing program area seeks to identify and support those organisations which have well thought out projects that seek to help vulnerable members of the community to overcome the challenging circumstances in which they find themselves. The Foundation favours programs that are preventative in nature and seek to address the root causes of disadvantage.

To improve circumstances for vulnerable members of the community, this program area supports organisations that seek to establish pathways for vulnerable individuals such as:

  • creating employment pathways for people with disabilities or otherwise vulnerable individuals
  • assisting individuals and families at risk of or experiencing homelessness and all that goes with it.

 

IMPORTANT

·  Applicants must first speak with the Ian Potter Foundation’s Program Manager Alberto Furlan on 03 9650 3188 before submitting an Expression of Interest (EOI) to be considered eligible to apply. After the initial conversation, the Program Manager will invite suitable candidates to apply for the EOI.

·  The Foundation only considers grant applications in excess of $100,000 in this program area and these are usually considered as multi-year grants.

·    Proposals that are collaborative and/or share knowledge with the broader sector are encouraged.

·   The Ian Potter Foundation rarely awards the full amount of any project.  Please ensure that you have identified other potential funders prior to applying. 

 UNIVERSITY LIMITS AND EOI PROCESS

A maximum of TWO applications may be submitted by an organisation in a given grant round for this program.  The MRO will therefore run an internal EOI process if the number exceeds the allowed limit for the EOI submission to the Foundation.  The internal EOI panel will select the applications for submission to the Foundation.

Applicants must complete the attached MRO EOI form and email the completed form with CV of the PCI only  (maximum two pages) to  mro-applications@monash.edu by 10 am Monday, 22 March 2021.  Only those applicants who have been advised by the Foundation that they are eligible to apply and invited to submit an EOI should complete the MRO EOI form.

Please note that ONLY the applications selected for submission through the internal EOI process will need a corresponding Pure record.
