Mission 

Raising funds and supporting community projects that make a real difference to the people of Glenorchy City.

Purpose

To help build a more connected, inclusive, and resilient community, one where everyone feels they belong and can thrive.

History

The Glenorchy Community Fund was officially launched in 2011 with support from the Glenorchy City Council. The then Mayor, Adriana Taylor, helped open the Fund and remains Chair today. Her continued involvement reflects the strong local leadership behind the Fund.

The Fund was set up under the umbrella of the Australian Communities Foundation, which manages and invests charitable funds across Australia. This structure ensures donations are professionally managed and invested to provide ongoing support for the Glenorchy community.

Although the Fund was supported by Council at its launch, it operates independently with the support of volunteers across our community.
