Once a year, The Ross Divett Foundation calls for applications for grants from community organisations that are registered as Deductible Gift Recipients in Sub-division 30-B of the Income Tax Assessment Act (ITAA) 1997. 

Once applications are received, the Board Members may, at their absolute discretion, select and make grants from available funds. Grants will be distributed every year in July.

Under the grant guidelines, The Ross Divett Foundation will generally not fund:

  • Budget deficits or general operating expenses,
  • Building or other works of capital nature work,
  • Debt retirement,
  • Lobbying for political purposes or legislative change, or
  • Religious or sectarian bodies where services are limited to members of that group.

Please note: The Ross Divett Foundation requires acknowledgement of the grant in any publications or reports published by the receiving organisation, with copies forwarded to the Foundation. The Ross Divett Foundation logo must not be used without prior consent. If an organisation incurs GST for the purchase of equipment or provisions of services to the community the GST cost will not be included in grant funding.
