The Ballarat Foundation is an experienced and trusted community foundation servicing the Ballarat community. Our sub funds are the lifeblood of our approach to creating a positive impact.

These sub funds are pooled and invested with the income generated used to support positive community outcomes parochially in the Ballarat region.
