AMP is making available A$1M in grants to individuals who are working on a project that has positive community impact but needs a financial boost to take it to the next level.
AMP’s philanthropic arm, the AMP Foundation, is seeking people in NSW who are making meaningful and inspiring contributions to solving some of the country’s major community issues.
The program, now in its ninth year, offers grants of between A$5,000 and A$100,000 to those working in any field – from science, social innovation and disability support to medical research, the environment, education and more.
Head of AMP Foundation Helen Liondos said the AMP Tomorrow Fund can help support people by giving their funding project the financial boost that it needs to go to the next level.
“Now, more than ever, Australians are challenging the status quo – they are creating innovative solutions to address our most entrenched social and environmental issues,” Liondos said.
The program has no categories and is open to people of any age, working on any social or environmental issue.
Last year, the AMP Tomorrow Fund provided grants to 27 individuals seeking to address major social challenges faced and included educators, inventors, social innovators, scientists, linguists and more.
The annual grants program supports determined individuals who are working hard on a project that will benefit the community.
Each year, AMP’s Tomorrow Fund awards grants of up to A$100,000 for a wide range of activities, including training, travel costs, living expenses, research or project expenses.
So far, 334 grants totalling A$8 million have been awarded.
Applications for AMP’s Tomorrow Fund are open until 4 April 2022.
