About This Grant

The Aboriginal Benefits Foundation (ABF) provides grants to organisations working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities across Australia. The Foundation supports projects in health, education, employment, housing, and community development.

Grants are typically between $5,000 and $20,000 and are awarded twice per year. Projects must directly benefit Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and communities.

Eligibility

Not-for-profit organisations delivering services or projects that directly benefit Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Must be incorporated and have an ABN.

How to Apply

Project description, budget, evidence of incorporation, ABN, and letter of support from an Aboriginal community organisation.

Barayamal Tip

These grants are relatively small but easy to apply for — good for first-time applicants. Applications open twice a year so check the website regularly. A strong letter of support from community can make a real difference.
