Grants Program

The Law and Justice Foundation of NSW Grants Program aims to improve access to justice, particularly for socially and economically disadvantaged people, by supporting selected projects to improve access and decrease barriers to justice, or through research, to identify need or ways to improve access to justice.

The Foundation accepts small grant applications of up to $5000 at any time. Applications for general grants of up to $50,000 close on 31 March and 31 August annually.

You must discuss your project proposal with Grants and Legal Information Manager, at least 6 weeks before the closing date or submitting your application. The next general grant round closing date will be 31 August 2013.

Please contact Jane Kenny, Grants and Legal Information Manager, by phone on (02) 8227 3210 or email grants@lawfoundation.net.au to make a time to discuss your proposal.

To prepare for a discussion about your project, please download and read the Grant Applicants Kit and the LJF Grant Application Form. If you have trouble downloading these documents, please email grants@lawfoundation.net.au
