Welcome to the Tasmanian Community Fund. We make grants to community organisations that make a difference by enhancing well-being and improving social, environmental and economic outcomes for the Tasmanian Community. The Board conducts two grant programs: General Grant Programs The Board conducts two general grants programs annually. The aim of this program is to distribute funds across a broad range of community projects state-wide. Targeted Initiatives Program The aim of this program is to identify and fund specific sector initiatives that have the capacity to achieve significant and sustainable benefits for the Tasmanian community. Grant Recipient of the Month: The Launceston Walking Club Inc In 2005, the TCF held a special Preserving and Promoting Tasmania’s Cultural Heritage funding round.  Under that round, funding of $2 million was allocated to 31 projects around the State which increased awareness and enjoyment of Tasmania’s past. One of the recipients was the Launceston Walking Club.  The club received $30,500 to preserve its collection of film and slide archives, and create DVDs from those archives.
