Southern Highlands Community Foundation

Our purpose is to build a stronger community

The Southern Highlands Community Foundation (SHCF) is on a mission to build a community that is kind and connected. A community that is giving and helps those in need. We do this by supporting initiatives that have lasting impact and generate hope which help our community continue to thrive.

We’re about smarter giving and greater impact

Since we started in 2001, we’ve distributed well over $1M in funds, supported over 70 community projects and got behind over 50 community capacity building projects. Not bad for a humble regional community foundation.

Do you know an unsung hero?

Highlands Heroes is a bi-monthly award to recognise and reward those quiet achievers within the Southern Highlands community who work tirelessly for their chosen cause as volunteers.

We’re looking for nominations now. If you know of someone who might fit the bill please complete the nomination form on our website.

Each successful winner will receive $5000 grant to their organisation.
