FRRR is both a grant-seeker and a grant-maker. Therefore, nothing we do could be achieved without the support of our donors and partners.
FRRR's remit requires us to build strong, sustainable partnerships to support rural, regional and remote communities. Without the generous support of our many donors - Trusts, Foundations, Corporations and Individuals – we could not achieve what we do. We are therefore greatly appreciative of the continued support for our programs and the genuine interest in the work that we do.
We acknowledge the many suppliers who also work with us: the in-kind contributions you make, as well as the discounts you apply to your work are appreciated.
While we work with each of you in different ways - from running a program on your behalf, or collaborating to provide funding for programs addressing a specific rural issue - we value your support.
