What is in the directory
4,141 Australian grant programs from 14 official sources: GrantConnect and business.gov.au for Commonwealth funding, every state and territory grant portal, local councils and university programs. Every entry links back to the government page it came from and carries the date it was last read.
Browse it two ways. By jurisdiction, for grants for small business in NSW, community funding in Victoria, or whatever your council is running. By purpose, for small business, community, arts, sport, training, capital works, disaster recovery, environment, health, regional and research. Both routes lead to the same programs, and every program has a page of its own with the deadline on the front.
Closed rounds stay listed. Most Australian grant programs run again, so a closed page is a next round worth knowing about, and the alert list tells you the night it reopens.
