DELIVERING GOOD FOOD DEEDS
We intend to fund community-led food projects designed to address critical challenges in rural and remote Australia. These projects will focus on food justice, disaster preparedness, and enhancing the lives of single mothers, carers or support workers through food and financial literacy programs. Additionally, projects must prioritise youth engagement..
Our Grants will be funded by our Giving Circle and we expect to call for applications in mid 2025. Sign up for an invitation to the Heartbeat Community, or email us below and we will keep you posted.
