Naracoorte & Districts
Established to provide grants for charitable initiatives that strengthen the wellbeing and vitality of the greater Naracoorte community.
The Naracoorte Community Sub Fund supports charitable projects that benefit the greater Naracoorte region. From grassroots initiatives to community-wide programs, the fund helps address local needs and create positive, lasting impact.
Grants may support a wide range of causes—from education and health to arts, environment and community development—provided they deliver charitable outcomes for the people of Naracoorte and surrounding areas.
Managed by the Stand Like Stone Foundation, the fund is open to donations from individuals, families, businesses and community groups who want to invest in the future of Naracoorte. All contributions are held in perpetuity, with income distributed as grants to support the region’s evolving needs.
If you would like to donate to the Non-Tax Deductible Naracoorte Seeds Sub Fund, which allows greater flexibility for distribution of funds, please click here.
