The Cram Foundation
Giving Philosophy
Cram operates from a human rights-based, person-centred philosophy that prioritises the lived experience and agency of people with disabilities. The foundation values respect, accountability, integrity, and empathy, selecting initiatives that champion inclusion, remove barriers, and empower individuals to make informed decisions about their own support and participation in community life.
Tips for Applicants
Align proposals with Cram's person-centred, human rights-based approach and demonstrate how your initiative removes barriers and promotes dignity and inclusion for people with disabilities. Organisations should emphasise lived experience involvement, choice, and community participation outcomes in their applications.
