How to seek support from philanthropists
Over the past few years, we have seen a growing number of Australians wanting to give something back to society. In deciding where to give, they are likely to choose areas that are very close or personal to them. For example, if a family member has bone cancer, the donor may feel passionate about finding a cure.
As a grant seeker asking for support for health and medical research, you can play a central role in helping these individuals and organisations achieve their philanthropic objectives. Now is the ideal time for the health and medical research sector to develop a systematic approach to seeking support for high quality research from the philanthropic sector.
Research Australia Philanthropy launched its comprehensive Research Register, designed to minimise the administrative time and make it easier for grant seekers to identify suitable philanthropic partnerships.
Research Australia invites researchers to register support needs to help connect you with grant makers. We will contact researchers when potential funding opportunities have been identified.
