Overview: In view of the limited resources available to the Foundation, priority for funding is being given to the following categories:

1. Seeding grants:

• to research the relevance and value of new projects that may be ineligible for support from existing agencies
• to facilitate schemes or projects of benefit to Aboriginal health, welfare or education which have potential for wider application.

2. One-off grants in support of:

• health and well being of artists and their families
• education through art projects which will benefit health and well being
• individuals and communities, with a connection to Aboriginal art and/or artists, to meet special needs

Grant applications are considered by the Board of the Foundation at each directors meeting. The Board currently meets approximately 6 - 8 times each year.

In extreme and special circumstances the Board may allocate funds outside these guidelines.
