Da Costa Samaritan Fund Trust
Giving Philosophy
The trust supports a broad range of health and social welfare initiatives across South Australia, focusing on helping vulnerable and disadvantaged populations. Given its long history since 1898, it appears to value sustained, practical assistance to address community needs.
Tips for Applicants
Direct applications should be made through their website. Given the broad beneficiary categories and focus on South Australia, organisations working in health and social welfare within SA are most likely to align with their priorities.
