About

Minus18 is Australia's national charity dedicated to improving the health, wellbeing, and safety of LGBTQIA+ young people. It provides mental health support, creates life-affirming spaces like Queer Formal events, and delivers educational workshops and training to schools and workplaces to create inclusive environments free from discrimination.

Giving Philosophy

Minus18 focuses on preventive mental health support and community empowerment, values grassroots engagement with LGBTQIA+ youth, and prioritises organisations and programs that create tangible improvements in the lives of same-sex attracted and gender diverse young Australians through education, visibility, and safe spaces.

Wealth Source:Based on the website, Minus18 appears to be primarily donation-funded with additional revenue from merchandise sales (rainbow merch), training/workshop fees, and likely corporate partnerships. Annual giving is $100,000.

Tips for Applicants

Align your proposal directly with their focus on LGBTQIA+ youth wellbeing and inclusion; demonstrate how your program creates safe, affirming spaces or provides education that reduces discrimination. Given their national reach and emphasis on both metro and regional communities, show how your initiative could benefit youth Australia-wide.
