The Trustee For Purves Environmental Fund
About
The Purves Environmental Fund is an Australian grant-making organisation dedicated to achieving meaningful impact in environmental sustainability and biodiversity. It empowers and enables other organisations and individuals by funding initiatives that act as catalysts for change, fill gaps, break down barriers, and foster new thinking and leadership in the environmental sector. The fund focuses on issues such as habitat degradation, invasive species, land-clearing, unsustainable natural resource management (especially freshwater), and pollution (particularly plastics) across Australia.
Giving Philosophy
The foundation seeks to be a catalyst for real change, supporting initiatives that fill gaps, break down barriers, and encourage new thinking and bold leadership. Beyond financial grants, it also provides mentorship and networking opportunities to organisations with strong leadership and management teams.
Tips for Applicants
Applicants should demonstrate how their initiatives will create catalytic change, address identified gaps, or introduce new thinking in environmental sustainability. Highlight strong leadership and management, aligning with their focus areas on biodiversity, natural resource management, and pollution.
