Who we are

A family foundation, quietly funding work that lasts.

Greengib Foundation is a private ancillary fund — a grant-making charity, not a service provider. We do not run programs of our own. We resource the organisations that do.

Our giving follows four program areas: animal welfare, climate and environment, community services, and civic participation.

About the foundation

West Perth, Western Australia — where the foundation is based.

Program areas

Four places we put our trust.

We make grants of money to charitable organisations across these program areas — the work named in our ACNC registration.

Animals

Animal welfare

Grants to organisations that protect, care for and advocate for animals — from native wildlife to companion animals.
