Apply for Funding

Please note: These applications are accepted all year round. A maximum of 15 applications will be assessed per funding quarter.  Once this limit has been reached, all applicants will be automatically allocated to the next funding round. As a guide, there usually is a waiting period of 6 to 12months before applications can be considered.

Applications will only be considered if they fit the Foundation’s focus. It will support charities that aim to improve and protect the quality of life of Australians, in keeping with Thomas Cooper’s values in the following areas: Medical research and health care, Youth education, Aged care, and Fostering family and community support based on Christian values.
