These are the applicant types Hands Across Canberra lists for this program. It is a starting filter, not the full eligibility test, and the guidelines on the official page are what decide an application.
What Featured Grants funds
A Chief Minister’s Charitable Fund grant enabled the Multicultural Hub to provide essential support to their clients in Canberra and Queanbeyan who had lost their employment but had not been eligible for any of the government welfare packages released in response to the financial impact of COVID-19.

How to apply
Applications are made through
Hands Across Canberra
Not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look. The direct link to Hands Across Canberra's own application page is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.
- No closing date has been published, so check the official page for the current round before you begin. Any date that appears there is picked up on the next nightly read.
- Confirm details on the official page before applying. GrantWindow records what the funder published and when we read it. We are not the funder and this page is not legal, financial or eligibility advice.
