Giving Philosophy

FNPW approaches giving by fostering partnerships with government, corporate entities, and NGOs to drive conservation outcomes. They are committed to restoring native land and wildlife populations, supporting local environmental communities, and embedding cultural knowledge and leadership from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples into their conservation efforts for lasting impact.

Wealth Source:The foundation was established in 1970 by the late Hon. Tom Lewis AO, initially as the fundraising arm of the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. It now operates as an independent conservation organization, primarily funded through public donations, bequests, and corporate and government partnerships.

Tips for Applicants

Focus on projects that conserve Australia’s native plants, animals, or cultural heritage. Demonstrate how your project aligns with FNPW's mission of growing national parks and saving endangered species, potentially incorporating cultural knowledge and partnerships with Indigenous peoples. Highlight specific species or habitats in trouble if relevant.
