What Financial Hardship Grants funds

What this money is forCapital works

Back in 1879, Thomas Buckland, then President of the Bank of New South Wales, later to become Westpac, donated his £1,000 bonus to establish the Buckland Fund. The Fund was created to help struggling families of bank employees who had passed away and found themselves in ‘necessitous circumstances’.

That description is Westpac Foundation's own wording, reproduced from the official listing under Publisher copyright. Facts compiled from the funder's own public grant pages; each record links to the exact page.. Our plain-English summaries are being written program by program and this one has not been done yet.

How to apply

Applications are made through

Westpac Foundation

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 Westpac Foundation's own application page is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.

Application link
  • 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.
Common questions

About Financial Hardship Grants

Answered from this program's own record, and re-read against the funder's page every night.

Something else? hello@grantwindow.com.au

When does Financial Hardship Grants close?

Westpac Foundation has not published a closing date, so GrantWindow does not show one. We do not estimate a deadline somebody may plan a week of work around. The date appears here the night the funder publishes it.

How much funding is available through Financial Hardship Grants?

Westpac Foundation does not publish a funding amount for this program, so this page does not show one. The figure, where there is one, is in the guidelines Westpac Foundation publishes on their own page, which this record names and carries the link to.

Who can apply for Financial Hardship Grants?

Westpac Foundation lists this program as open to individuals. That is a starting filter rather than the full eligibility test: the criteria in the funder's guidelines are what decide an application.

Is Financial Hardship Grants still open?

Westpac Foundation has not published enough for us to state this round's status with confidence, so the page says so rather than guessing. Check the official page, and we pick up any change the night it appears.

Who runs Financial Hardship Grants, and does GrantWindow take a cut?

Financial Hardship Grants is offered by Westpac Foundation in Commonwealth of Australia. Applications are made through the funder, never through GrantWindow: we take no applications, charge no fee and act as no intermediary. Any site offering to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look.
