The Health Services Union (HSU) NSW/ACT/QLD is committed to supporting the work being done by our local Indigenous Community Groups and Organisations to enhance the health and wellbeing of their communities.
The HSU NSW/ACT/QLD established the HSU Indigenous Development Fund to contribute to the education of Indigenous peoples, assist with the provisions of health services in Indigenous Communities, and further any other program that benefits Indigenous communities. It is our view that a modern trade union must act socially, not just industrially. We are proud to support our communities and members through initiatives such as this.
The HSU NSW/ACT/QLD Indigenous Development Fund may grant funding between $2,000.00 and up to $10,000.00 for the implementation of a community-based project.
Projects should be completed between January 2021 and June 30, 2021. Applications are invited from community-based organisations working with Indigenous communities in the ACT, NSW and QLD.
