The Trustee For The Cory Charitable Foundation
Tips for Applicants
Approach this funder with well-developed proposals focused on affordable housing or homelessness in Queensland. Given their pattern of large one-off grants to established charities, applicants should have strong track records and ideally seek partnerships with reputable welfare organisations. The foundation appears to favour capital projects over operational funding.
Giving Philosophy
The foundation focuses on high-impact capital projects that create lasting change in housing insecurity. They prefer partnering with established, reputable charities (such as The Salvation Army) for large-scale building construction or redevelopment projects that can leverage additional funding for larger developments. Their approach values innovative solutions to chronic homelessness and seeks to make transformative grants rather than small annual disbursements.
