Each year, the Hamer Sprout Fund will consider applications from organisations that share the fund’s goals. We are particularly interested in giving to smaller organisations and projects to get them off the ground. They welcome a call or e-mail to discuss your idea or project and its suitability for the grant.
The mission of the Hamer Family Sprout Fund is “to build communities inspired to take action for a sustainable future”.
Their aims are to support projects and organisations that:
- Promote innovation in environmental education
- Facilitate engagement in environmental action
- Advocate for environmental sustainability
- Foster collaboration between young people engaged in environmental leadership
Available Funding
Funds for the Sprout Grants are raised through the fundraising activities of the Hamer Sprout Fund and the Hamer Family Fund.
