Eligibility checks
Screen fit before you apply.
Check eligibility, evidence required, and effort versus funding amount before drafting.
Non-profit grants in Australia often require ACNC registration, DGR status, ABN, and incorporation as a condition of eligibility. Many programs are also restricted by service area, target population, project type, or organisation size. Start by confirming your entity structure, registration status, and whether your project purpose matches the funding objectives.
Then check the evidence required — financial statements, audited accounts, governance documents, letters of support, and outcome measurement plans — and compare the application effort against the likely funding outcome. Beta Docs helps you assess fit quickly before you invest days in an application.
