Request for Proposals: Tobin Brothers Foundation Grant (Australia)
Section
The Tobin Brothers Foundation Grant reflects the company’s long-standing dedication to supporting local communities through meaningful philanthropy.
With a focus on community projects in Melbourne, regional areas, and New South Wales border towns where Tobin Brothers operates, the foundation continues to invest in initiatives that bring real benefits to people and neighbourhoods.
Established with a founding donation of $25,000 from Tobin Brothers Funerals, the foundation has steadily grown through annual fundraising activities. Its purpose is to provide funding for specific projects that strengthen communities, particularly those led by smaller, local, and community-driven organisations. By supporting initiatives at the grassroots level, the foundation ensures that resources reach those who understand and address community needs most effectively.
Grants of up to $5,000 are currently available, offering a valuable opportunity for local organisations to access targeted financial support. Applications must demonstrate a clear and measurable community benefit to be considered. The program is open only to organisations with Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status under Division 30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, ensuring transparency and accountability.
With its emphasis on diversity in the types of projects funded, the Tobin Brothers Foundation takes pride in nurturing initiatives that promote inclusivity, resilience, and stronger community connections. By continuing its tradition of philanthropy, the foundation plays a vital role in empowering communities across Victoria and New South Wales border towns.
