Giving Philosophy

The Foundation is dedicated to investing in the future of rural and regional New South Wales. They empower individuals through education and professional development to become leaders, and strengthen local communities by funding initiatives that address identified needs and promote self-reliance and growth.

Wealth Source:The RAS Foundation is an entity of the Royal Agricultural Society of NSW (RAS). Its primary revenue sources include contributions from the RAS (which generates income from events like the Sydney Royal Easter Show), fundraising, donations, and investment income, rather than a single founder's wealth.

Tips for Applicants

Applicants should clearly demonstrate their connection to rural or regional NSW. Scholarship applicants should highlight their leadership potential and community involvement, while community grant applicants must articulate how their project will directly benefit local residents and address specific community needs within NSW.
