Grants Process:
- The grants process consists of four General Rounds each year, supplemented by one Educational Round with closing dates as follows:
- 28 February
- 31 May
- 31 July (Education Round)
- 31 August
- 30 November
- Applications outside the above grants rounds will be considered monthly only where there is an urgency which has arisen due to unforeseen circumstances. These will be limited to a maximum of $5,000 other than in exceptional circumstances.
- Applications for ‘major grants’, ie one of over $100,000 that offers an enduring benefit for a substantial sector of the community, may be made within the four General Grants Rounds each year.

This committee considers all grant applications and comprises members of the Board of Trustees.
