WACD Community Foundation

Giving Philosophy

WA Charity Direct operates on a principle of 100% giving, ensuring every dollar donated by members goes directly to recipients with no administrative overhead. The foundation prioritises supporting those most in need within Western Australia, working collaboratively with service providers and case workers to determine appropriate support. It values community participation and local impact, welcoming applications from both individuals and charitable groups twice yearly.

Tips for Applicants

Individuals can apply at any time via application form, ideally with support from their service provider or case worker. Charitable groups should apply during the twice-yearly Funding Pitch Sessions (May and November) and should demonstrate how their programs address unmet needs in the WA community.
