Paul Ramsay Foundation (PRF) is one of Australia's largest philanthropic foundations, established by the late media entrepreneur Paul Ramsay AO in 2006 and substantially endowed upon his death in 2014. The foundation works to stop disadvantage in Australia by investing in, building, and influencing the conditions needed for people and places to thrive.

PRF operates on a theory of change focused on addressing systemic disadvantage through three interconnected strategies: investing (grants and impact investments), building (insights, data, knowledge and capability), and influencing (policy and outcomes through collaboration and advocacy). They take an evidence-informed approach, support innovation and bold ideas, measure what matters, and prioritise community-led efforts. Their Fellowship Program supports innovative research to fill knowledge gaps and create meaningful change.
