Apply for Funding

We consider requests for funding when we meet, typically on a quarterly basis, please see application details below.

  • Application Dates

    We make grants of between $2000 and $5000 four times a year.

    In 2024, we will be trialling some proactive granting, providing unrestricted organisational funding to organisations and groups that work in our focus areas. Advisory Board members will be recommending and reviewing organisations to support.

    To that end, if you think that we don’t know about your awesome organisation yet, you are a DGR1 organisation (or can partner up with a DGR1 organisation) and work with First Nations people in Victoria, or refugees and asylum seekers in Victoria, send us an email briefly introducing yourselves. If we think you’re a good fit, we will be in touch to find out more about your organisation and what funding or other support you need.

    We’re especially keen to support organisations that are First Nations led, or refugee and asylum seeker led, and organisations that are youth-led!

  • Reporting

    If you have received a grant from The EastWeb Fund, please contact us via email to discuss reporting back on your grant. Generally, a new grant won’t be made to your organisation until we’ve heard about how the previously funded project went, but we don’t need detailed or complicated reporting back!
