The Foundation strategically supports projects that help counterbalance the wealth divide and build trust between all groups in society. Your idea for a project on wealth inequality goes beyond poverty reduction in working towards systemic change. If your idea for a project addresses wealth inequality through education, it should aim to shape skills to bridge the gap in unequal access to opportunities. The project or initiative represents a holistic approach that includes life skills, critical thinking, and problem solving and is able to positively impact and potentially change the existing education system, and not only increase the capacity of the existing system.

Your organisation is able to conduct non-profit projects. Your project falls into the core area of Wealth Inequality. You present a sound implementation plan and realistic budget for the requested funds. Your proposed project grant request does not exceed 30% of your organisation's total budget. Exceptions can be made for start-ups or new initiatives. Your project has the purpose of testing, scaling, or iterating an innovative approach to reduce inequality. Your project goes beyond funding for your organisation's ongoing activities or core programming.
