FUNDER
The Ian Potter

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.
