The charitable foundation’s focus is to support community projects which address disadvantage in the community in the areas of health, social wellbeing and young people.
““We invite all charity organisations in the Hunter seeking support for projects that address important community issues to apply for a grant from the Foundation which is one of the largest in regional NSW,” Newcastle Permanent Charitable Foundation executive officer, Graham Batten said.
“Our mission is to give back to our local communities by supporting projects that have a profound impact on the lives of people in need.”
The foundation has donated more than $16.7 million to 400 projects and endeavours across the Hunter since 2003.
The outdoor gym at Miller Park, Branxton (which opened in June 2016) is one local project that was made possible by funds from the Newcastle Permanent Charitable Foundation.
