Social Service (Aged Care) Funds Grants

Please note that funding is limited and the Social Justice Committee may not be able to recommend assisting all applicants with their total costs.

Grants are made by the Diocesan Council on the recommendation of the Social Justice Committee on a quarterly basis, with the ability to consider urgent applications outside that time-frame on a one-off basis. 

Please note, no applications are sought this quarter for Child Care funds or Disadvantaged Youth Funds.
