Giving Philosophy

Tenants Queensland approaches its work with a philosophy of unequivocal advocacy and empowerment, striving to protect and improve tenants' rights through accessible information, advice, and representation. They aim to enhance residential tenancy conditions by enabling tenants to understand and utilize their legal rights and by representing their concerns to the community and government. The foundation prioritizes delivering high-quality, free, and independent advisory services, with additional support for vulnerable and disadvantaged renters.

Wealth Source:Tenants Queensland Ltd is primarily funded through government grants from both State and Commonwealth Community Legal Services Programs, and specifically by the Queensland Government for its Queensland Statewide Tenant Advice and Referral Service (QSTARS). They also receive revenue from donations, bequests, and the provision of goods or services, along with some investment income. They are a registered charity.

Tips for Applicants

For organizations seeking funding or partnership with Tenants Queensland, it is crucial to align with their core mission of protecting and improving tenant rights and conditions in Queensland. Proposals should demonstrate a clear strategy for delivering advice, advocacy, or support services that benefit vulnerable and disadvantaged renters, or contribute to law reform and community education on tenancy matters. Collaboration with existing Tenants Queensland programs, such as QSTARS, or addressing specific issues like domestic and family violence in tenancy, or supporting First Nations renters, would likely be viewed favorably.
