As a not-for-profit organisation and registered charity, ETC loves giving back to the communities in which we operate!
Through the ETC Community Support Fund (CSF) since 2012, we have provided over $3 million to worthwhile community organisations, including $2 million over the past 4 years.
The ETC Community Support Fund provides funding support for organisations to help them respond to the greatest needs in our communities relating to employment, skills development and/or the major barriers to employment.
We have supported young people, people with a disability, migrants and refugees, the long-term unemployed, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and the broader community.
Our aim is to provide significant funding for significant impact.
Recipient organisations have used ETC funding to purchase infrastructure, equipment, resources, information technology and materials; develop publications, kits and information; develop and deliver support services and programs, establish social enterprises; and achieve special projects.
