ABC Future Fund are dedicated to strengthening Indigenous communities through on-country engagement, economic empowerment, and community-led initiatives. Through our Future Fund, we provide small grants and opportunities to grassroots Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, fostering self-determination and driving economic empowerment for sustainable futures.

They are a registered public fund, managed by ABC Foundation Ltd, dedicated to supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations in alignment with their strategic plan. Their vision is to strengthen remote and regional communities across Australia.

Supported by philanthropic and corporate donations, the Future Fund operates nationally with a focus on regional impact. Bi-annual grants are awarded to eligible organisations implementing projects under the On-Country Development and Care guidelines. This selective application process aligns with our strategic priorities and emphasises measurable social outcomes.

Organisations must submit their proposals through an online expression of interest platform. Once applications are received, the ABC Foundation grants team facilitates a thorough review process, considering each proposal’s feasibility, alignment with funding priorities, and potential impact on Indigenous communities.
