Understanding the Governance of Charitable Foundations Seminars For: Grantmakers, grantmaking advisors This seminar is an exploration of issues and considerations for trustees of charitable trusts and foundations in Australia. Topics covered include the structure of charitable trusts, governance and the role trustees play; what trustees must do and what trustees should consider doing; and governance failure. This seminar also provides an opportunity for those with significant interaction with foundations and trusts to understand the responsibilities and issues considered by Trustees. |
For: Grantseekers Providing grantseekers with an introduction on how to look for funding from philanthropic sources, these half-day workshops provide an overview of Australian trusts and foundations and the environment in which they operate. Learn how to research potential funding sources, what to include in a submission, what to leave out, how to make your application easy to understand, and what makes foundations different to other funders. |
