Application Process & Timeline
Organisations submit applications through the foundation's online system. Multiple grant programmes are available with varying deadlines throughout the year. Organisations may submit one application per grant programme but can apply to multiple programmes. Main programme deadlines include January, March, and September cycles. All grant recipients must submit a final report, and organisations failing to do so become ineligible for future funding until the report is filed.
