Small grants are awarded to organisations for legal projects and programs that in the opinion of the Foundation are likely to benefit the people of Victoria.

Small grants are for projects with budgets up to $5,000 (exc GST). Unlike general grants, small grants funds may be used towards events and seminars. Small grants projects are usually completed within 12 months of being awarded.

When can I apply?

Small grants can be applied for at any time throughout the year. See: How to apply
