The Jack Brockhoff Foundation Bold Futures grant program aims to change trajectories, break cycles and test new approaches to address complex problems in the following areas: 

Thriving Children  

With a focus on breaking cycles, we invest in initiatives that support the first six years of a child’s life through early intervention and prevention. Our goal is to ensure that all children reach their full potential. 

Safe, Secure, Connected Communities  

With a focus on participation and connection, we invest in increasing access to secure housing and mental health support. Our aim is to ensure that Victorians, especially older Victorians, can remain connected and engaged with their families, friends, and communities. 

Backing Big Ideas  

Focusing on achieving change at scale and addressing complex problems affecting the health and wellbeing of Victorians, we invest in leaders and experts in community, social innovation, and medical research. Our aim is to identify and implement innovative solutions to these intricate challenges.

Grants of up to $200k p.a. for up to three years are available. Applications can be made through an open grant process after speaking with foundation staff. 

Applications open December 2024 - February 2025.
