Giving back in 2026
Is there a community cause you care about? RAA’s Grassroots Giving program is now receiving applications.
Since 2019, Grassroots Giving has supported communities across South Australia. In 2025, disadvantaged South Australian children and babies, and orphaned kangaroos were just some of the recipients who benefited from the annual grants program.
And, in 2023 RAA focused on helping communities rebuild after the summer floods, with eight groups in the Riverland receiving funding.
Key areas where RAA looks to support local community groups include helping disadvantaged and/or vulnerable South Australians, assisting youth development, celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and reconciliation activities, reducing inequalities in the community, innovation, and environmental sustainability.
RAA Grassroots Giving funding pool has been boosted to $150,000 by the new Community Impact Fund. Applications close 6 April 2026, and each successful applicant will be awarded up to $5000 in funding.
