Tips for Applicants

As a Private Ancillary Fund, the Trawalla Foundation does not solicit funding requests from the public or have open grant rounds. They proactively identify and partner with organisations and individuals.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation acts as risk capital, backing bold ideas and leaders with an entrepreneurial, collaborative, and progressive mindset. They use a range of levers beyond grants, including investments, expertise, networks, and advocacy, and manage their corpus with a responsible investing lens.
