The EastWeb Fund Details
We work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, asylum seeker and refugee communities living in Victoria. Our role is to boost their capacity to drive quick positive change for long term impact.We invest in projects devised and run by people in these communities that strengthen their cultural heritage or bridge the gap they experience in health, employment and education. In doing so, we work together to counter disadvantage and promote stronger communities.We fill a space in the philanthropic landscape as a proud grassroots fund by being responsive and accessible to small organisations who serve our communities. We give small, targeted grants on a quarterly basis, and work closely with grantees to also provide non-financial support, to achieve the greatest impact. EastWeb is entirely volunteer-based and provides pathways for young people to build professional skills. The Board reflects EastWeb principles by actively recruiting young people and members from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, asylum seeker and refugee communities. Our aim is to reduce the divide between philanthropic and community sectors. We do this by ensuring our grants are genuinely community-driven and by developing ongoing relationships with the communities we support.
