As we move through the first quarter of 2023 this signals the commencement of the Nudgee Trust Annual Grants Round. Over the last four years the Trustee has approved grants totaling around $4.6M to a wide range of projects from across the sponsored ministries. The Trustee preferences grants which are focused on new initiatives with a demonstrable social impact and a service delivery focus. In a small number of instances, the Trustee has provided grants to support capital equipment.
The Trustee recognises that some projects need to run across a number of years and has provided grants for up to three years. In these cases, annual acquittals are still required before the next tranche of funds is released.
The Grants round opens in March 2023 and the deadline for submissions is the third Friday in May – 19th May 2023. The June 2023 Trustee meeting will review submissions with successful applicants advised before the end of June 2023. Ministries are encouraged to apply for grants and to contact Mr Chris Townend on 0404 821 772 for further information. Ministry Chairs and CEOs will receive an invitation to the grants round including a copy of the Grants Guide for 2023.
