Where We’ve Come From
Into Our Hands Foundation is pleased to partner with Ecstra Foundation to deliver the 'Our Prosperity Realised' project.
Into Our Hands Board Chair, Ruth Kneebone, said, "This Australian first project documents the philanthropic potential for our region should more people begin to give local endowments at the end of their lives. We will educate people about the potential for building a legacy that will strengthen the future capacity of their communities. Once complete, we expect that in the future, community foundations will be able to adopt our model to enable transformative change for communities throughout Australia."

The Foundation was pleased to support the Myrtleford Chamber of Commerce with its local delivery service as part of the Bushfire Recovery & Pandemic Small Grants Program. This grant is an excellent example of how the Foundation can mobilise quickly to support north east community groups to be self-sustaining in the longer term.
The grants program is still open and for more information, please head to our website.
The pandemic has been particularly challenging for the creative arts and culture sector. In response, the Rural City of Wangaratta has created a new FB page to bring together our creative and cultural communities of Wangaratta and surrounds.
