The National Crisis Response Fund has been established to enable effective granting to lesser-known organisations with a strong track record of delivering services that address stress points in our current system.
By leveraging Australian Communities Foundation's national reach, the fund identifies (1) the groups that aren’t being heard, (2) the issues that aren’t being addressed, and (3) the organisations that are best positioned to fill these gaps.
Throughout the process, we are speaking with our extensive network of not-for-profit and sector experts. Every week, we interact with hundreds of community organisations and leaders.
We are listening to local communities and grassroots organisations across the country, analysing government and civil society responses, and monitoring developments to identify the next critical funding opportunity.
The fund supports communities and individuals within Australia only who are experiencing distress as a result of COVID-19.
