Background

The Aboriginal Community Development Fund (ACDF) has been established to provide funds to support a range of community projects that deliver positive, constructive, real and sustainable outcomes to the Aboriginal Community of Interest. The ACDF is administered by the Aboriginal Community Development Fund Committee (ACDFC) who meets on a quarterly basis.

Before completing this form, it is recommended that you read the Fund Guidelines which clearly outlines priorities for funding proposals and the matters the ACDFC will consider when making decisions on your application and that you take this into account in drafting your application. The Fund Guidelines may be found at

Decisions of the ACDFC are final and reasons are not given.

Funding may be provided for projects that will assist to achieve the ACDF “Vision for the Future”. “Sporting and community activities” is one of several types of projects that the ACDF may provide funding for.

The Sporting Sponsorship Application is designed to assist applicants to provide relevant information for sporting activities. If you have a community activity you wish to seek funding for, it may be more appropriate to use the general application form. Completely an application does not indicate that the ACDFC will provide funding for these activities in any particular funding round or at all. Prior successful or unsuccessful applications may not indicate the success of future applications.

The Guidelines indicate that the following types of applications may be considered:

  • Specific grants to individuals whose specific circumstances require support.
  • Assistance by way of scholarships for outstanding young sportspeople.
  • Sponsorship of Aboriginal role models who will promote sport and sporting achievement.

It is important that applicants also address the mandatory criteria and any additional criteria that they would like the ACDFC to consider when submitting their application. From time to time the ACDFC may also develop specific guidelines in relation to sporting activities.
